If I am ever able to decorate my apartment exactly as I would like to, I plan to shop for all the furniture at Hallands Auktionsverk. Not sure how I'm going to ship it back to New York. (This whole fantasy includes winning the lottery.) Hallands is in the town of Halmstad on the west coast of Sweden, about two hours outside of Copenhagen in Denmark. Click "auktioner" on the left, and their list of auctions come up. Hit the "katalog" icon, pull down "alla" and let the thumbnails load. There's tons of pretty estate furniture–hello, Carl Larsson–art, lighting, and smalls. (Container share, anyone?) No English language options here, but if you want it, you'll figure it out.
