  At their clothing boutique around the corner, Wolves Within, husband-and- wife owners Max and Bethany Vogel had customers asking them for three years whether the shop’s carefully scouted décor was for sale.

Among the items you never knew you needed: a folding ashwood stool topped with English bridle leather ($165), which may have been intended for camping but sure fits great in a New York apartment.
