Columbia, SC (PressExposure) February 08, 2010 -- In a time of economic challenges shoppers are seeking ways to decorate their homes with furniture that offers versatility and value, and wood secretaries are emerging as a popular choice. Carolina Imports of Columbia, SC, features wood secretaries of many different sizes and styles to fit individual budgets and decorating tastes.
Characterized as a desk with a slant-front surface and drawers or cabinets underneath, secretaries typically have bookcase tops that are filled with cubbies and small drawers for storage.
According to Pam Harpootlian, owner of Carolina Imports, wood secretaries are becoming increasingly popular as shoppers search for wooden storage pieces that add visual appeal to a room while being functional.
"At Carolina Imports, we offer a wide selection of wood secretaries to fulfill customers' furniture needs," said Harpootlian. "The Carolina Import difference is that our wood secretaries will stand the test of time with beautiful craftsmanship and high quality materials that make our pieces stand above the rest, especially in a world of cookie-cutter, disposable furniture."
The Columbia store's wood secretary collection features an oriental, red chinoiserie secretary and a mahogany Price of Wales secretary.
Carolina Imports reports that shoppers and designers come from across South Carolina and neighboring states to visit the warehouse store. The business also offers information about wood secretaries and other pieces of wood furniture on its website at http://www.carolinaimportsfurniture.com.
A non-commission-based staff means that Carolina Imports customers are free to explore the store and dream-up a new look for their home, while staff members stand by ready to answer questions. The shopping environment fosters creativity, while allowing customers to obtain assistance when needed, according to Harpootlian.
