““I had been looking for a large piece for my living room, in a certain price range, and had been having a lot of trouble finding something I liked. I’m not the easiest to shop for, but after much searching Katharine was able to find me a great piece that fit my budget, along with providing great framers and installers. I can’t recommend her services enough!” ”
