A visit to Charlotte Moss’s four-floor retail store feels like walking into a life-size dollhouse. Moss, an interior designer since 1985, takes a unique approach to selling her wares, decorating and furnishing a townhouse as she would for her client. So there’s a bedroom with a full-length mirror, a dresser, and several oil paintings; a flower room with gardening tools and potted plants; and a library lined with bookcases, reading chairs, and even upper-crust books with tart twists�like The Playboy Gourmet, for example. (There’s even a tumbler glass full of real Scotch.) However, aside from a �cabinet of curiosities,� which houses an assortment of knickknacks, the decorated-home concept means the selection is limited. There’s just one style of bed, armoire, and dining table for sale�though they’re changed seasonally�to go along with the lamps, chintz throw pillows, and silverware sets.
