Encore Consignment Gallery’s Kirkwood location, at 10821 Manchester Road, sells itself on scale as much as selection, describing its overall operation as the largest home furnishings consignment company in metro St. Louis. Spread across the Kirkwood showroom and a sister store in Town and Country, with a newer third location added in Fairview Heights, Illinois, the company works with roughly 18,000 square feet of combined floor space dedicated almost entirely to upscale furniture, home decor, and lighting, alongside a smaller but steady selection of handbags and fine jewelry. For shoppers along Manchester Road in Kirkwood, that means browsing sofas, dining sets, case goods, lamps, and accent pieces that were, in most cases, purchased new not long before landing on the consignment floor, rather than digging through the mismatched furniture typical of a general thrift store.
What distinguishes Encore from many secondhand furniture dealers is the pace of its inventory. New pieces arrive daily from consignors across the region, and the company is upfront that it cannot hold items for shoppers who want to think it over, since the fast turnover that keeps the showroom stocked also means popular pieces do not sit around for long. That rhythm rewards repeat visits: regulars who stop by every week or two tend to have first pick of the best new arrivals, while occasional shoppers may find that a particular sofa or lighting fixture they liked has already sold by the time they return. It is a model built for a market where both downsizing homeowners and design-conscious buyers want a faster alternative to estate sales or high-end retail.
Beyond retail sales, the Kirkwood location supports the practical side of moving furniture, offering delivery service with quotes based on the size of the item and the distance to its new home. Encore also assists with estate liquidation and downsizing, a service that matters in a close-in suburb like Kirkwood where longtime residents are often clearing out family homes and looking for a company that can both sell their furnishings and handle the logistics of getting them out the door. That combination of consignment sales, delivery, and liquidation support lets Encore serve sellers and buyers on both ends of the same transaction, rather than functioning purely as a drop-off resale counter.
The Kirkwood showroom keeps consistent, shopper-friendly hours: Monday through Friday from 10am to 6pm, Saturday from 10am to 5pm, and Sunday from 11am to 5pm, giving both weekday browsers and weekend furniture hunters ample time to visit. Handbag and jewelry consignment is available at the Kirkwood store as well, giving visitors a reason to check the smaller display cases even if they came in primarily to browse furniture. Between the daily rotation of new arrivals, the added delivery and liquidation services, and a footprint that spans three locations across the St. Louis and Metro East area, Encore has built a business around the idea that quality used furniture deserves the same kind of dedicated retail space as anything sold new.
In short, Encore Consignment Gallery in Kirkwood is a large-scale home furnishings consignment showroom on Manchester Road offering upscale furniture, lighting, decor, handbags, and jewelry with daily new arrivals, delivery service, and estate liquidation support for shoppers and downsizers across the St. Louis area.
