Closed for Business: Extraordinary


One more independent Fifth Avenue business bites the dust. Extraordinary, the home decor store at 195 Fifth, between Berkeley and Union, quietly shuttered just after Christmas.

The merchandise sold at Extraordinary, largely made exclusively for the shop, mostly consisted of items like hand-carved wooden vases and bowls, picture frames, lamps, candle holders, etc. Owner J.R. Sanders, a former museum curator, kept the inventory constantly changing and made sure that the craftsmanship was always up to par.

It still looks like the business is still in operation online, thankfully.

This store was terrible. I tried to buy something here multiple times and each time they said they'd get in in 2-3 weeks and this went on for over a year. They were not serious about their business at all, and their stuff wasn't really that great.
