Owner Lynn Skynear decorates with wit and wisdom, constantly rethinking her inventory.
Thank you for submitting a review. Please check back soon.
Look, I've gone to Skynear for years. One thing I can say is when the owner is there it's like going home. She always made time for me, my kids and our out of towners. They have fabulous, unique pieces and I seldom go home empty handed. Everyone has a bad experience with a rogue employee, but why diminish the reputation of one of Washington's most beloved stores? I don't want the robots that serve you at the chain stores. I want the local business and Skynear is one of the best. My kids remember drawing on paperbags and getting stickers and pins from the owner and staff.One of my out of town friends pointed this review out to me. I had to defend my favorite DC store. I'll give them all the stars in the sky to keep them in DC.
They do have some nice furniture in this store, but beware about ordering anything from them. I ordered a sofa 9 weeks ago and was told 4-6 weeks for delivery. After 6 weeks I called and was told the sales person I worked with was no longer there and delivery was 6-8 weeks. I have made 5 calls to David "the manager" and each time was told he would call back, but he never does. When I have talked to him he has acted like it is my fault for trusting his former employee! Still waiting....buyer beware.
