Terrible service. She sells hot garbage for such an expensive price. Wanted to take a picture of some goods I wanted to see if my wife wanted it as well and then the store lady goes ballistics claiming I'm taking pictures to recreate her stuff to sell for myself. Go see a doctor.

Les Belles is the absolute BEST antique shop in all of Niles! The owner Norma is the most professional and knowledgeable dealer who has been in the business for decades. The shop is high end and offers a variety of rare and valuable furniture, lighting, jewelry, and decor. Anyone who is well versed in antiques would take one look inside and realize this place is the real deal. I highly recommend if you are a serious antique collector looking to acquire a unique and worthwhile piece.

The owner of this antique shop has to be one of the rudest excuse of a person I've ever had the displeasure of encountering. Her prices are way out of touch with reality $$$$$ for what she has. Seriously, $4500 for a marble table & $1800 for a pair of nightstands with the knobs falling apart. Get REAL!!!! Worst of all is her attitude when attempting to make a reasonable offer. She practically goes into hysterics & chases you out. One couple wanted to take a photo of an item & she yelled at them not to take any pictures. Obviously she could care less Do yourself a favor and shop the other antique shops just next door. WOW!!

The woman working this store is an absolute curmudgeon. Apparently she just enjoys having an antique store full of over priced goods. She certainly doesn't want to deal with anyone who walks in inquiring about the pieces. I heard her being rude to a customer (she couldn't understand her accent and didn't attempt to be polite about it) so I decided to leave when a I hear my husband, who also has an accent, ask a question and she was down right nasty. It really brings down all the other shops which, may not have the same ambiance but have way better service. We took our money there.

Went by there today as they are listed as antiques appraisers. I was told very firmly by the person there that the do NOT do appraisals. Unfortunate, as I have many pieces of furniture. Just correcting the listing.

Suan stayed late, had problem just sitting on the floor with me while we looked through tons of perfume bottles. She kindly educated me on manufacturers I was unfamiliar with and then helped me find two beautiful bottles to purchase. On top of all that, her store is filled with tons of higher end antiques that she sells at a great value! Don't pass her store up when visiting the town of Niles.

If all antique stores were as wonderful as Les Belles, I would be spending a lot more time browsing and perhaps spending money to redo my house with some beautiful vintage pieces. Although I prefer stark modern décor, I did see things like a couple of vintage bags that really appealed to me. I also like vintage china and silver, there were a few nice serving pieces that I liked but would never use. When I first walked by the store the nice widow display caught my eye. When I opened the door the pleasant sound of 1940's jazz was playing and the hanging glass was sparkling. I walked by cabinets filled with pretty things. I did see a couple of things that really appealed to me. Whenever I buy something now it has to be useable. I just could not think of where I would go that I could use a vintage purse from the 40's or the one from the 20's so I passed them by, both were priced around $200 and were too expensive for my collection.

What a lovely & quaint shop. Walking In there takes you back to the 1920s. Wonderful oldies playing in the background really adds a quaint touch. Absolutely gorgeous antiques and beautiful relics from the past. I could literally spend hours in there uncovering there many hidden treasures. Very warm and knowledgeable service. Sue Anne & Norma I believe are very sweet and friendly. I really appreciate all their help. A Niles gem!

This is a cut above most antique stores. Many quality unusual items displayed with humor and style in a small amount of space.The lady was very friendly, even sent one of her clients to drive by my new home listing in Historic Niles. I see where they are having their 35 th anniversary Celebration April 14 & 15 , 2012 with Live Jazz, Music , food and some dressing the 20's flapper style.

I went to this store today with my boyfriend. Now my boyfriend enjoys history and antiques. We see a trip to Niles as a step back in history to enjoy artifacts of the western, victorian, noveau, and deco age. So today, we went to Les Belles. Now when I normally hit antique stores, it's glorified browsing. I can't afford any of this stuff. Although I'd love to redecorate my house to resemble some 1930s, flapper domain. It will never be fiscally in the cards/ The first thign I noticed when I walked in here, was the atmosphere. the `1940s jazz music, the fact that you're stepping back in time, and everything else make it a gorgeous place. The array of colors, crystals, and everything else make it one of my favorite places in Niles. If you can afford it, I recommend purchasing a piece here. But if you want the ambience of what an antique store should look like, look no further than Les Belles.

stumbled on this place by accident and my wife and I found the perfect piece we have been looking for for our dining room! the owner was very knowledgable about victorian antiques and is now searching for another piece we have been on the hunt for our home...thank you Les Belle!
