Svenska Mobler is closing its doors on Wednesday, November 26 (the L . A. location will remain open, and purchases can still be made online). Starting October 1, all items in the River North store will be 30 percent off; in November, they will be 40 percent off. It’s a shame to see yet another world-class dealer shut down in our city. Shopping online is convenient, but it’s just not the same as seeing, touching, experiencing the piece you are buying in person. So sad. Good time to get a deal, though.
