Beautiful store, went yesterday to look around. Loved all the baskets they had for plants and a beautiful chess board. Gentleman working there was very attentive and nice. Will be back for sure. Next place to buy new furniture or decorative items for around the house.

Nice mix of upper end furnishings. More of a boutique than regular funriture store. Friendly staff-not pushy commision types

I have been in this shop several times and always find something beautiful as a gift or for my home. They really have lovely things and affordable. Browsing through the shop is great, little finds every time you turn around! A jewel in the Rice Village.

The inventory here changes often so visit soon! Make sure to bring the bank if you find something you love! If you are looking for unique pieces stop by. This is a very interesting location to shop for decor items. If you have a unique taste for high fashion furniture. Then this is the place to visit because you can find items here that you will not find anywhere els. Happy shopping friends!

I think Houston is such an interesting city in terms of location since you can find high-end restaurants in strip malls, and wonderful antiques and one-of-a-kind item stores between chains. Enter, Mecox. As K.K. mentions, I'd love to live in this store. It's so well set up and has a lot of natural light so you don't feel like you're in a giant warehouse of found objects and furniture. The staff including Leslye were incredibly kind offering a bit of background on the store (the largest of the 8 stores nationwide) and never making my friend and I feel pressured to buy anything or leave. I think a place like this is an interior designer's dream with antique camel rocking chairs, geod paperweights, various sizes of painting and elaborate wall decor, and unique furniture from lucite to lush fabrics. While the prices were a little higher, I think they understand who they're marketing to, and the quality seems really great on many of their larger ticket items. Their website also shows a lot of their inventory with dimensions (so incredibly smart) so I may scope for a fancy wedding present. If I had the money, I'd definitely love to deck out a house with Mecox goods!

I went by the store yesterday and picked out a bar cart, which was slightly too big to fit in my car. The gentleman working offered to drop it off at my house the next morning on his way to work. I thought that was sooo kind of him and such high quality customer service. I live everything they have in this store!

If you like eclectic, high-end furnishings and collectibles for your home, Mecox is it. Everything from unusual chandeliers and lamps, custom upholstered chairs and sofas, to unique decor and art in various forms of media. Think Kuhl-Linscomb on steroids. It's definitely pricey (e.g. $600 for an accent pillow), but some of the things you'll find are really one-of-a-kind (I just spotted a real life-size zebra skin rug the other day). They have a wide variety of things ranging from super antique all the way to Art Deco/modern, and everything in between. If you're lucky to meet Hunter, he's got great character and charisma, but I think he's mostly doing custom decorating/design these days. I've bought several cool items such as local artist paintings, a chandelier made of tiger shells, an antique map of Houston before it was really Houston, a really, really, really heavy granite coffee table, a vintage poster, several chairs along the way, and plenty of Nest candles - in addition to a lot of interesting items for the past several years. Even an accent table upholstered in zebra with antelope legs (don't judge) - yes, the zebra again. Alas, this place isn't PETA-friendly I guess.

I will pay my fair share of the rent to live here, it is like walking into every foreign country you have not been to yet or you have been to and you want to take it home with you. As J. P. Morgan always said, "if you have to ask the price you can't afford it", many items were not priced. Unique lighting especially if you have more than one home. Not a good idea to bring a child into the store with green stuff oozing out of the nose, or a spouse that wants to lay down on a couch with a bag of cheetos, fun for all, not sure why they don't greet you at the door with a martini and a top hat.

This place is a rip-off. Found exact same lightening (Eric Cohler Parisian Floor Lamp) at circa lightening for $250 cheaper than Mecox, which calls the lamp Vicenza. This is just one item. I've priced many many other items and it seems Mecox is just another haughty third-hand furniture store marketing over-priced goods as antique and high-end. Rip.

i love the woodlands! that being said, there is a dearth of decent interior design retail in my beloved woodlands. ......... at mecox, you'll discover interesting one of kind pieces, great finds, cutting edge design, transitional and timeless furnishings for home, garden and gifts. the buyers here are on point and current. the highland village location fronts westheimer and is in between west elm and z gallerie.....both of which pale in comparison. my friend and i had great fun visiting with the staff: very friendly, unpretentious....which, unfortunately, makes me want to spend money. (rumour has it that persons calling themselves interior designers in the woodlands are coming to places such as this, harvesting great ideas, and selling them as their own. note to self: skip the self-styled suburban interior designers and chat up the boys at MECOX.)
