"Opening the door from 60th street into John Salibello's store makes me feel like Dorothy emerging from the forest, first glimpsing OZ. It is a sparkly abundance of sumptuous furniture, lighting and objects always a torment of too many beautiful things but ultimately our Kemble Interiors go to for the unusual, the perfect, and the OMG."

Jamie Drake FASID, IIDA Drake Design Associates

As a designer who collects and shops around the world, I find Salibello to be a most valuable resource. Just the sheer volume of interesting and varied pieces that John has in his 3 shops, always has us coming back. In addition to not seen elsewhere furniture pieces, the lighting of all kinds available is not matched by any other dealers. The staff is always so accommodating and even when I'm looking for something specific, they will do an intensive search to try and find something for us.
