Cockamamie’s came into being on July 4, 1996.  On that day we took what amounted to our life savings and put it into our store in New Hope and nothing has been the same since.  Herb had been vice-president of a Manhattan theater circuit for over 20 years.  John worked in college textbook publishing and had a theater background.  We were both avid collectors of art deco and it was that obsession that led to a store in New Hope.

We started off in 1996 as part of an antique co-op with porcelains, bronzes and cookie jars.  We opened our own 450 square foot store that same year and have grown into a 2400 square foot space.  In addition to our store, we have approximately 1600 square fee of storage inventory  Our inventory has changed considerably.  We now import French and English Art Deco furniture.  We have become so well known for our lighting that Peter and Nancy Schiffer of Schiffer Publishing approached us to do a book on Art Deco Lighting.  

We are devoted to providing our customers the best in 20th century furniture and home accessories at good prices.  Our merchandise is mid to high level.

We hope you enjoy our website and look forward to seeing you if ever you are in the area.
