Welcome to the New York “Classifieds” Closet Drops. For the past few months, we’ve asked some of the most tasteful people we know to open their closets and share the furniture, clothing, electronics, and more that they’re ready to part with. Our latest drop is from fashion designer Judi Rosen, who is selling Marsèll loafers, Parisian knickers, and a 1980s marble coffee table.
Parisian Knickers - $295
Here’s a two-piece knickers set that is both daring and devastating. This European classic frees the breasts while emphasizing them. The knickers have an open crotch and wide lace trim. The garment has French beading on a nylon body. Choice of purple with black beading and black with purple beading. One size fits all.
Price: $295

Mod Lamp - $100
This gorgeous little mod number was found in the depths of southern Florida at a massive flea market on the grounds of a defunct drive-in movie theater. The seller had a collection of European ’60s lamps and I had to buy all of them. I found the moment irresistible and confusing.
Price: $100

Marsèll Loafers - $85
Marsèll makes a beautiful shoe. It chose substantial subtle leather and offered unusual shapes. I love these loafers, but I had to admit they are too big. I’d say they are a size 40/9. A zipper in the back makes for an easy in and out.

Pierrette Nesting Tins - $40
I love a clown, especially an elegant clown, a.k.a. a Harlequin. These nesting tins have the obvious trappings like a perfect ruffle collar and delicate line art, but the real star is the single tear on the lids. By Trieste.

Pierrette End Table - $125
This commedia dell’arte–style Pierrette porcelain clown end table is the ultimate statement item. I have a perfect piece of glass to go on top. I think it’s a Tastesetters by Sigma, but I’m not 100 percent sure. IYKYK.

Guatemalan Tower - $1,200
This tower of Guatemalan belts has become a sculpture. This was an impulse buy seven or eight years ago. I altered the color thinking I would reinvent the classic hippie belt into some new cultural niche-signaling device, but began to enjoy the tower on its own. I think it would make a great lamp. Buy it before I change my mind.

Children’s Cowboy Boots - $325
These children’s cowboy boots are more of a sculptural statement piece than functional clothing, unless you are a professional in leather restoration and know a secret way to get these babies soft again. Either way, they are from the 1950s and quite beautiful.

Michael McCarthy for Cassina Marble Coffee Table - $2,200
Do you like cocaine? If you put in a little nasal-related effort, some might seep from its pores. This is a marble-top coffee table by Michael McCarthy for Cassina with a tubular chrome base. Exemplary 1980s piece in perfect condition.

Oak Dining Table - $1,200
The top of this dining room table is made of a gorgeous sanded oak, and the powder-coated metal base is the perfect update to a classic. This size is impressive, and it can seat six.
Price: $1,200
