About Us
"The whole antique shop has a rich glow and a warm welcoming feeling as customers wander from room to room imaging what it would have been like to live in Cross River 150 years ago with all the lovely antique furnishings and accessories displayed in The Yellow Monkey."
- The Lewisboro Ledger, December 2000
Owner Heidi Johnston began her career as a fabric designer for Scalamandre. Evolving out of fabrics and into home furnishings, Heidi spent six years creating and managing several retail home furnishing stores featuring high-end, custom furniture and essential home accessories.
Heidi joined the internet boom as one of three principle designers who were among the first influencers to offer high-end, custom furnishings through the internet. Heidi, along with her family, moved to Cross River and culminated all her experience into one resource to bring you the best in antiques and home furnishings found at The Yellow Monkey.
"My goal is to provide a centrally located resource for customers and designers
who no longer want to travel into the city to find high-end home furnishings.
With The Yellow Monkey right here in Westchester I can offer a wealth of
resources at a better value while maintaining high-quality customization."
"I hand pick everything that goes into my shop from large antiques to smaller decorative accessories, ensuring the quality and style are the best they can be. I consider customers of The Yellow Monkey to be part of the neighborhood and as such, I feel an overwhelming obligation to stand behind the quality of all the products and services The Yellow Monkey offers."
And what about the name, The Yellow Monkey? English pubs are named from two sources: first, a color; second, an animal. The founding owner possessed an unusual collection of ceramic monkeys and so the Yellow Monkey it was...and is today. After 30 years of supporting designers and customers, The Yellow Monkey remains a distinctive Westchester landmark and a global traveler's destination!
