We think that all of our furniture is incredible… but there’s always a few that stand out above the rest. Here are three pieces that Nicole, Penny Mustard’s Director of Sales, can’t stop talking about.

With so many great pieces throughout our showrooms, it’s hard to pick favorites. We gave our Director of Sales, Nicole, the difficult task of choosing her favorite Penny Mustard pieces from the bedroom, living room, and dining room. Here’s what she singled out…

Aristotle Collection Orion Door Chest

If you need a little extra storage space for clothes and the like, the Orion Door Chest is an outstanding choice combining functionality, style, and longevity.

“This chifferobe has been my favorite piece for as long as I can remember,” says Nicole. “Anytime I give tours to family, friends, and new hires, I always pay tribute to the Orion.”

The Orion Door Chest may be hefty due to its supreme construction, but it’s never bulky or difficult to use.

“Opening and closing such a large door almost always has some sort of reverberation. This entire piece is so structurally sound and solid, you feel nothing but ease.”

This chest offers an ample amount of space and features seven English dovetailed drawers with solid five-board construction. Each drawer includes full-extension ball-bearing drawer glides for easy access.

“The drawers inside and out are sanded and sealed to be smoother than glass and glide open and closed effortlessly.”

The other half of the piece resembles closet storage, with a full-length mirror and the option to include adjustable shelves or “a solid wood hanging bar so sturdy YOU could hang from it.”

As with most optionizable Penny Mustard pieces, this chest comes with a multitude of options to correspond with your aesthetic preferences.

“It's a transitional design, so depending on your lumber, stain, and hardware choice, it blends effortlessly into any decor.”

To top it all off, the Orion’s solid construction means it will last a lifetime – or maybe a few!

“I ALWAYS end Orion's tribute by telling everyone that if there is ever a tornado or earthquake, and I am in a showroom, I call dibs on the Orion.”

Marshfield Furniture Miles Sofa

When it comes to seating, the Miles Sofa is in a league of its own.

“It is without question my absolute favorite,” says Nicole. “It's actually a whole experience.”

The Miles Sofa is the perfect choice for both style and ultimate comfort.

“There are sofas you sit ON, and then there are sofas you sit IN. The Miles is definitely a sofa you sit IN.”

In fact, you’ll probably make any excuse just to curl up and stay there a while. A loooong while.

“Rainy or snowy weekend days are my absolute favorite, because I don't feel an ounce of guilt setting up camp with my weighted blanket, the remote controls, some good books, and my coffee/tea cup warmer alternating between documentaries… It's pure bliss.”

The Miles Sofa takes comfort to a whole new level with extra-wide, plush cushions that easily fit more than one person (or pet).

“It has really deep seats, so there is plenty of space for napping and having Abby and Anna (boxer/labs) come cuddle up with me.”

Not only is it incredibly cozy, but the Miles Sofa is attractive, too. It comes in a wide variety of fabrics and colors, along with a variety of coordinating pillow choices.

“Like so many of our pieces, the styles are classic and timeless and can blend into any style. I am a glam girl so peacock velvet is right up my alley.”

County Line Collection Emma Table

If you’re looking for a show-stopping dining table, the Emma Table should be at the top of your list.

“This table is absolutely breathtaking,” says Nicole.

The top has clean lines and a smooth finish, paired with a stunningly ornate base.

“The detail in the base is so elegant and regal. Paired with Celine Wing and side chairs… I can't even find the words to describe the beauty.”

With several wood and stain options, the Emma Table serves as a stunning centerpiece while blending seamlessly with existing decor.

“You just have to be quiet, stare at it, and take it all in.”
