Seattle’s 22 best furniture and home decor stores

Give your pad a local makeover

View as Map

From large showrooms to little corner boutiques, furniture and home decor stores in Seattle are pretty eclectic for both new and used options. Sure, you could head to Ikea—or Room & Board, if you’re fancy—or you could hit up your local furniture emporium, salvage organization, or vintage mall to seek out a perfect piece that you couldn’t find anywhere else.

While modern furniture, both midcentury and brand-new, are prominently featured in the Seattle home goods scene, there’s a little something for every taste, most budgets, and any level of appreciation for weirdness. Some of these spots are fully secondhand and some offer brand-new luxury goods, while a couple of others can give you a one-of-a-ind refurbished piece.

Whether you’re looking for a Craftsman hutch or a minimalist sofa, some pots for your succulents or a big ol’ gargoyle, there’s a shop that has you covered.

Map points are ordered north to south.
