Empire have a home in Freo, and just as you would expect it’s pretty laid back and beachy. I always drive past the Empire in Fremantle and think I need to drop in and visit. Last week I did. The stock definitely reflects the area; dressers, chairs, tables and other home wares with a more rustic and oriental feel than items at the Highgate counterpart. I’m not sure if it was just this time of year, but they seemed to have a lot of stock on sale, either that or they use Freo to clear a lot of the other store’s stock. It’s quite expensive like all Empires, but you’re sure it find something you would like for your home. The Highgate store definitely has more items to my liking than this store though.
