Park Road Shopping Center in Myers Park is undergoing a transformation, in case you hadn’t heard. Not just in appearance, although there is a lot of new paint, landscaping and parking renovation. Edens is bringing new life to this, Charlotte’s oldest “shopping center,” with a new juice bar, a new salad spot, vietnamese & rocksalt restaurants, rumors of an Amelie’s and more. What has been a shopping convenience for the neighborhood is likely going to be an in-town hot spot for all.
So, pretty soon the secret on CLASSIC ATTIC Consignment store will be out. If you like shopping brand name furniture, antiques and vintage at way, way below retail, you need to get over there asap, before the rest of Charlotte figures out this resource exists my friends.
When you get to Park Road Shopping Center (it’s easier if you come in from Westfield) turn right at Rocksalt and head to the “backlot.” You can see, things are happening there even as we speak. Head down toward the middle of the lot and find Classic Attic on your left, at 4301-C Park Road. Right before the Blackhawk Garden Center spills out into the parking lot. 🙂
You can’t miss it. And right when you walk in, you’ll find their outdoor and porch furniture and accessories.
If you are looking for nice furniture on consignment, mostly classic brands and styles but with an occasional modern option available, you need to hit this store at least a couple of times each month. CLASSIC ATTIC gets many consignments from some of the best homes in Charlotte, it’s shopped by many local designers and decorators, and their inventory turns over quickly. It’s either sold or moved out in 90 days, and everything over 60 days is marked down 20%.
As you know, consignment is not regular retail ~ there are almost never duplicate items. If you see a piece you want, get it. It likely won’t be there when you go back.
Good news though. At CLASSIC ATTIC, you can take home on 24 hour approval to see how your find(s) work in your house. Or put on 24 Hour hold, while you get your better half, mom, decorator or BFF to come in and give an opinion. That’ll be key, ’cause things do not stay on the floor long at CLASSIC ATTIC. There were probably 15 shoppers and consignors in and out while I was there last Thursday midday.
These are just a few of the items we shopped there last week {no guarantees they’ll still be there! Call 704-521-3750 before you go, or just take your chances!}
FURNITURE
CLASSIC ATTIC carries case goods, upholstered furniture, dining tables and chairs, armoires, side tables, lamps, chandeliers, mirrors, artwork, accessories and, last but certainly not least, an extensive selection of designer drapery at consignment pricing.
It’s a big space, and there is a lot to look through. Go with a hit list in mind, but be open to the Find Of The Day.
CHAIRS
CHANDELIERS & LAMPS
ACCESSORIES
At the back of the store, past the “last chance” sale section, is the LINEN CLOSET at CLASSIC ATTIC. Here you will find pillows in designer fabrics, priced between $20 to $80 each.
You will find a rack of table cloths and linens, with some traditional, embroidered pieces for ridiculous prices.
And then you will see the designer drapery wall. With a handsome selection of full length curtain panels in luxe and brand name fabrics, some sewn with amazing detail. Toiles, silks, damasks, prints, linens, you name it. In 2 / 4 / 6 panels and more. Priced at around $100 per panel, depending on quality of work, amount & type of fabric, etc. Ready to be hung, or ready to be used to create shades, pillows or upholstery. If you’ve ever paid for curtains, you know that getting a room done for less than $1000 is a crazy great deal.
If you don’t find what you are in search of, the ladies at CLASSIC ATTIC keep a customers’ wish list going, to share with their stable of consignors AND so they can call you when they get in something you might want. Sweet.
CLASSIC ATTIC receives consignments Monday through Thursday so there is always new merchandise to see. If you’re looking for a particular piece in a certain style call them (704) 521-3750 or email consign@classicattic.biz and they can email you pictures of items that might not be on their website.
Likewise, if you see something here or on their site that you would like more info on, call (704) 521-3750 immediately as things sell quickly. They will hold items for 24 hours to give you time to come in and review them in person, or take your credit card information over the phone.
