Myers & Monroe

"Absolutely exquisite gallery filled with striking, museum-quality antiques. The pieces are carefully curated by the owner for their quality and historical significance, and the amount of care and passion that goes into the collection is obvious in the way he talks about the pieces. Each one has a story that makes it as meaningful as it is beautiful. Besides the pieces, the owner is the most impressive part of this gallery. He knows each piece intimately, and he will captivate you with their stories as he highlights the features and details that make them unique and magnificent. He has devoted himself to his work with a level of dedication and determination that is extremely rare, and his enthusiasm is infectious. He has done an incredible amount of work to source some of the best examples of French antiques in existence, and his transparency, knowledge, and commitment to authenticity and quality are unparalleled. This gallery and everything in it are a magical blend of art, history, and beauty. You will leave either with a new appreciation for French antiques or with the most stunning and significant piece of furniture you’ve ever owned."

"Myers and Monroe’s collection of antiques tells the fascinating history of France through the lens of furniture. His pieces are carefully chosen, his prices are extremely competitive, and his collection is truly one of the best in the US. As an interior designer, I would love to see one of his pieces in our clients' homes. How amazing to own a piece of living history? Cole knows his antiques like old friends and is passionate about what he does. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or interested in collecting antiques but don’t know where to begin, I would highly recommend a visit to Myers and Monroe."

"Cole is very knowledge regarding French antiques. He always has an AMAZING selection of items that you will not find anywhere else. He routinely visits France and only brings backs the most amazing pieces that he can find. Truly one of the best selections."

"Cole has spent most of the past decade sourcing the finest existing specimens of mid-seventeenth to early nineteenth century furniture from France. He has spent the majority of that time in-country living and honing his craft. His knowledge of period detail is unrivaled in this region of the Untied States, and his pricing is extremely reasonable. He knows what great customer service is all about!"

"This is an amazing gallery. The ceramic work on the main level is made by local and nationally known artists. Myers & Monroe is on the top floor where I bought the nicest pieces of furniture I own. For instance, the desk I bought is identical in period and style to the one President Monroe brought back from France in the late 1790s (on which he later drafted the Monroe Doctrine protecting North and South America from invaders). I now own an exquisite piece of useful art that is a fundamental part of American History. I cannot thank Cole enough for how much his efforts have enhanced my life and my home."
