New, Custom & Consigned MCM

What makes our mid-century modern collection different from chain furniture stores is the mix:

New MCM furniture — Current-production pieces from New Pacific Direct and other quality makers. Solid mango wood, genuine rattan, and welded steel construction — not the particle board and veneer you'll find at big-box retailers.

Custom MCM sofas & sectionals — Stanton builds custom sofas at their factory in Canby, Oregon — about 30 minutes from our showroom. Choose a mid-century frame, pick from 350+ fabrics, and receive it in 4–6 weeks. Rowe (Virginia) and Stylus (Vancouver, BC) also offer MCM-inspired custom frames.

Consigned & vintage MCM — Authentic mid-century pieces from Portland homes. We regularly stock vintage Lane, Heywood-Wakefield, Drexel, and Broyhill alongside designer consignment from West Elm, Room & Board, and Article. Every piece is inspected for structural quality before it hits the floor. Browse our newest arrivals — vintage MCM sells fast.

Why MCM Furniture Works in Portland

Portland has one of the highest concentrations of mid-century homes in the country — Rummer ranches in the suburbs, split-levels throughout SE and NE, and MCM-inspired new builds everywhere in between. The style isn't a trend here, it's the default. That means two things for furniture shoppers:

• Your home was probably built for it. Low horizontal furniture, warm wood tones, and organic shapes fit the proportions and sight lines of Portland's housing stock better than oversized contemporary pieces.
• The local supply is excellent. Portland's consignment pipeline regularly produces authentic mid-century pieces from original owners. We see vintage MCM that never hits the national market because it changes hands locally. That's why our consignment floor is worth checking every week.

MCM Buying Guide

Know the era. True mid-century modern spans roughly 1945–1969. If you want period pieces, look for construction details: solid wood (not MDF), dovetail joints, manufacturer labels, and hand-finished surfaces. Our team can help you identify age and origin on any consigned piece.

Mix eras intentionally. You don't need an all-MCM room. A vintage walnut credenza next to a contemporary sofa, or an MCM coffee table under a modern pendant light — mixing periods keeps the room from feeling like a museum. The rule: keep the wood tones and scale consistent.

Check the legs. Tapered legs are the signature MCM detail. They should be solid wood (not hollow), securely attached (not wobbly), and finished to match the case. On consigned pieces, leg condition is the first thing to inspect.

Invest in the anchor pieces. A quality MCM sofa or dining table sets the tone for the entire room. Fill in around it with smaller finds — a consigned coffee table, a vintage accent chair, a new set of dining chairs. Our showroom makes this easy because new and consigned sit side by side.
