Ilya Kohen and CurtainTime are a throwback to the past, for which I am incredibly grateful. CurtainTime is a speciality store, run by a person who knows his subject. When I needed to match window hardware from 30 years ago, it took only minutes to explain and he understood, searched and found what I needed. The shop is just what it says:CURTAINS. Quality pieces which will last, rather than tossing things out in a few years due to wear and breakdown. Hardware to create an effect in a home. The specialization that's been lost with online and box stores really does still exist somewhere! We don't go to a cardiologist for a root canal, or an orthodontist after a heart attack, why would you go to a department store to creste your look, or order online without even touching the fabric? Curtain Time has a massive variety of window dressing and hardware, operated by a specialist in his field who also has resources to help find or make special pieces to fit your home's needs. And not at an exorbitant cost either. Ilya Kohen made me feel something I haven't feel in years.. like a customer whose input matters and whom he wanted to sincerely help. Thank you for being there when I needed your help Mr. Kohen, for understanding my needs, your kindness and diligence in getting me what i need, and for reminding me that special or usual window needs can be met by Curtain Time. Your shop fills a huge void in today's world. Nancy
