Modern Classics

I purchased several pieces of furniture from Modern Classics and am very happy with the results. The furniture is beautiful. One can find similar products on the Internet for more money (companies involved with the original designs) and less money but I think Modern Classics provides very good quality furniture for a reasonable, middle-of-the-road price. I worked with Alison in the Chicago showroom and although most of the pieces were custom ordered and shipped from Washington, Alison answered my shipping questions and followed through until the order arrived at my house.

I found Modern Classics online because I was looking to purchase some chairs and know the look I wanted, but could never find a company that offered the selection and pricing until them. I went to their Chicago showroom and was so impressed with the comfort and quality of their pieces. I purchased two chairs and an ottoman for my living room. The showroom manager was so helpful - she and I had been emailing back and forth for a couple of months prior to my showroom visit. She always answered my questions quickly and fully. When I received the chairs to my home I was amazed at how well they were boxed up for the delivery process. I have ordered expensive furniture before that comes off the truck with no protection and their products were packaged so thoroughly it would be near impossible to get any sort of damaged product. I was so thrilled with the entire experience from their customer service to their focus on quality right to the very end. The chairs are beautiful (black leather "Barcelona" chairs ) and are getting a lot of praise from family and friends who have seen them.

I purchased an Exhibition chair and ottoman for my house in Bloomfield Hills, MI. from Modern Classics in Chicago. I dealt with Alison Mitchell by phone after reviewing the products online. Alison forwarded digital photos of these items from the Chicago showroom which enabled me to make the decision to make the purchase. The items were shipped from Seattle and arrived on time. She later mailed a receipt and made sure I was satisfied with the furniture. She is knowledgeable and was very professional throughout the transaction process.

We purchased two Mies van der Rohe Exhibition chairs from Modern Classics. The quality of construction and finish are absolutely top-notch. The metal frame is beautiful - solid, no weld marks, perfectly polished. The cushions are soft and supple, the stitching tight and neat. The service was excellent, from our initial visit in the Chicago showroom with Alison to the follow-up service after delivery. The people are extremely knowledgable, helpful, and responsive. Highly recommended.

My wife and I met with Alison at the Modern Classics showroom in downtown Chicago on May 15, 2015 to look at the Womb chair reproduction to see if it would meet our needs. Alison is a gracious and knowledge young lady who clearly knows her product and has an excellent sense of design, especially as it relates to mid-century furniture. She was extremely helpful and she provided us with swatches so we could see if the color we selected would work with our decor. A few days later, we placed our order for two womb chair reproductions and a matching ottoman. Less than two weeks late,r our new furniture was in our living room- great service! The chairs and ottoman are beautiful, unbelievably comfortable and after seven months of every day use, they still look brand new. Quality is outstanding! I would not hesitate to do business with Modern Classics again and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for high quality mid-century classic reproductions at reasonable prices and of the highest quality.

Since moving to Chicago, I fell in love with not only the architecture of Mies van der Rohe, but also his furniture designs. I decided that I had to have a Barcelona chair and stool, but experienced sticker shock when I saw what Knoll was charging. A friend recommended that I contact Alison at Modern Classics, for reproduction pieces that were well-made, comfortable, and affordable. Alison was a pleasure to work with: knowledgable, personable, and responsive. I ended up buying the Mies van der Rohe: Exhibition Chair and the Mies van der Rohe: Exhibition Ottoman, both in premium black leather. I couldn't be happier, and neither could my black leather desk chair, who now has 2 "friends". :-)

I worked with Allison in there Chicago Studio, she was very helpful. I purchased a floor model chair and ottoman and ordered a sofa and table.!i am extremely pleased with the quality and service I received. I will definitely work with them on future purchases!
