Roberts Furniture

Ashbourne

“Anything is possible” is the key phrase that sums of Roberts Furniture which is about to celebrate 65 years in business. With a clientele including Brown Thomas, McDowell Jewellers, Trinity College and Dublin’s Conrad Hotel, it’s fair to say that Roberts Furniture already has an impressive reputation to build on in the coming years.

The Ashbourne business repairs, restores and re-upholsters much-loved furniture and offers expert advice and tips to give your home a makeover without the expense. According to Nicky Somers: “We are able to alter the shape, style and colour of your furniture so that you retain the same high quality but can enjoy an entirely new look to match your space.” The company also has a huge range of accessories that can transform basic furniture with colour time and time again.

The family business is finding that many homeowners are beginning to shy away from flat-pack furniture and return to quality, lasting pieces and fittings that are locally made. Roberts Furniture is a business that merges style, a flair for the creative, fabrics, frames and furnishings with environmental awareness, value for money, superb quality and first-class service.

June Rayfus Interiors

Flower Hill, Navan

While the recession meant curtains for many businesses, the talents of June Rayfus Interiors meant that economic constraints only served to make the business stronger. The boutique and tearoom with ample free parking for customers is situated on Navan’s Flower Hill and has a varied customer base from all over the country.

June is known for her ability to create unique handmade curtain and Roman blind designs for her customers. She also specialises in soft furnishings, wallpapers, headboards, home accessories and reupholstery. The shop has a litany of fabric and wallpaper books available for customers to browse at their ease. According to June: “You will see curtain displays and settings to give our customers ideas of how they can create a feeling of luxury in their own homes. “We offer our customers a bespoke curtain and blind design service and a full interior design service, giving each client a personalised service while keeping their style, needs and budget in mind.”

June Rayfus has so many fabulous designs and materials on offer that it can make your head spin – that is why the popular tearoom comes in handy. While you’re considering your options, you can grab a coffee and some mouth watering snacks so can make your informed choice on a full stomach – you can’t get much better service that that!
