Style for less: Ixia sells its decor
Another dispatch from elite retail reporter Andrea K. Walker:
If you liked the nouveau style of the former Ixia restaurant in Mount Vernon, today could be your last day to take a piece of it home with you.
The upscale Mount Vernon restaurant, which closed late last month, has been selling off everything in the restaurant. Today is technically the last day of the sale, although restaurant designer and spokesman David Briskie said they might extend it into Monday or Tuesday.
What’s up for grabs? Wedgewod China, upholstered furniture, leather bar stools and one-of-a-kind art. Just to name a few things.
The sale lasts until about 5 p.m. Briskie said whatever doesn’t go will be put into storage for the next venture.
“Any designer should come because there are great deals,” Briskie said. “We paid a fortune for it and and we’re letting it go well below cost.”

I was going to buy a set of silverware, but they were out of spoons!
If you go, make sure you go all the way back to the kitchen -- the plates are back there, and pots, pans and various cooking tools are for sale, too.
Thanks for the tip, Justine! --- lfk.

My husband walked down to Ixia a bit ago on his lunch break and he said they were locked up tight, nobody was there.
That's surprising ... I know some colleagues who stopped by perhaps before 1:30 and took a look around. --- lfk.
