MIDCENTURYLA — Local services in Los Angeles

MidCenturyLA is the real deal—an absolute standout in a sea of knockoffs and overpriced “vintage-inspired” fluff. What sets this place apart isn’t just the furniture (though the pieces are stunning: teak credenzas, sculptural chairs, brutalist lighting, and the occasional unicorn find)—it’s the taste level and curation. Everything here feels selected with intention, not just thrown on the floor to fill space.

David, the owner, not your typical pushy salesperson—in fact, the opposite. He’s generous with his knowledge, straightforward about condition and provenance, and refreshingly honest when something isn’t the right fit. He’s just as happy helping first-timers find a signature piece as he is sourcing for serious collectors. There’s a warmth and humility to the whole experience that makes you want to come back, even if you’re just browsing.

The quality of the pieces is exceptional—original finishes, clean lines, proper craftsmanship. And the prices? Actually fair. You’re not paying for a brand name on a tag—you’re paying for timeless design, restored or preserved with care.

Mid-CenturyLA is less a store and more a living gallery of what makes that era so enduringly great: simplicity, beauty, and purpose. And in David, you’ve got a guide who brings out the best in both the space and the people who...

This is a bright, beautiful, clean space; well organized and designed, with many beautiful pieces. The staff is friendly and helpful, answering all our questions and sharing information about where and when pieces are from, or interesting facts about the designers. We bought a beautiful, cozy, comfy danish lounge chair for just over $2,000, which felt like a reasonable price to us. They helped us load it into the car. We really couldn’t have had a better...
