With a truly original eye, Kirk Albert Furnishings combines the best of vintage salvage, set…read moredecoration and found masterpieces. While I've never purchased here, I have to say the walk through is one of the most unique and remarkable places to browse in all of Georgetown, which is saying a lot since Georgetown is already the epicenter for the unique and remarkable in Seattle. I have always had a crush on the creatives of this world, for their ability to see things that, while I can appreciate and be inspired by, I could not put together myself. Its a intangible talent to make beauty tangible. To create and transform a space. You walk in here, and everything is unique, and its placed in such a way that makes you see an already one-of-a-kind item, differently. Its not just a furniture store for the reclaimed and upcycled, Kirk Albert has some really almost revolutionary transformations going on, like turning a vintage bowling alley into a long, gorgeous communal table by adding enormous, industrial-type legs. Turning old reclaimed wood into a one of a kind console by by breathing new life into it with a balanced set of Frankenstein shop legs. He incorporates found items like a giant ten foot long hanging hammer (take that, boring home office!) to a humorously disturbing John Basquiat meets Frances Bacon framed 3-D tormented man, to possibly hang over your VIctorian fireplace. This shop is very expensive, no doubt about it. Its not for everyone. I mean when have you ever struck out to shop for a six foot tall, black, turn of the century Moose Lodge sign? But for those who like to think outside the box, one piece here could boost your home decorating prowess. Kirk Albert has a curator's eye, a unique and inspiring way of looking at objects that could potentially transform your living space.

There are consignment stores, and vintage stores, and non profits that sell some similar stuff and charge and arm and a leg for facsimiles. Danny seems like he loves getting stuff so that the right owner will gravitate towards the good and he has an eye for quality. For example, vintage baseball globes, Raybans, gems, handmade wood toys, a random barrel which could contain rum or poison, and musical instruments. Who knows. There are lots of masks, treasures, and harder to find stuff if you know where to look and how to look. Am I collector? Yes! I will share that this hidden gem of a store is better than many places I've visited in Seattle and in sleepy towns. The sleepy towns have some legit finds. Please support Danny. He's really nice, super helpful, and has a great personality. I've walked in to his shop and he's providing tourists with a 15 minute Seattle tour guide with the best poke eats and sightseeing. This is complementary.
