Furnishing Main Street

By Denise Miller

Now celebrating its 60th anniversary, Mace Brothers Fine Furniture is part of the town landscape. A large grey building on the corner of Oakwood and Kearny Avenue, this seven level store is an example of small business success and years of dedication to service, quality and value.

Established in 1952 by Lillian Mace and Richard Mace, Mace Brothers Fine Furniture started out in a small building in Kearny. As the business grew in the ‘70’s, it relocated to a larger showroom at 512 Kearny Ave., where it continually provided New Jersey residents with an affordable, local option for home furnishings. Lillian Mace, one of the only women in the industry at the time, dedicated her career to the business, believing in the importance of serving her community. She passed this love of furniture on to her daughter and her granddaughter who carry on her tradition of quality, service and value. On their 60th anniversary, Mace Brothers would like to welcome new customers into their store’s tradition and thank their loyal customers for their ongoing support.
