At the start of what would become the roaring twenties, when New York City was absolutely the place to be, Michael Silberstein turned his back on the Big Apple, packed his bags, and headed south. Drawn to the quiet streets of the Jersey shore, Silberstein and his wife, Malvina bought a house in Rumson, and he began working at a casket upholstery shop in Red Bank.
The owner of the shop handed the business over to Silberstein in 1925. He renamed it The Upholstery Shop and provided families in the area with general reupholstery services as well as custom made furniture and window treatments, all with fabric selected from the books in Silberstein's collection. Throughout the 96 years, the business has seen its ups and downs, the most notable being The Great Depression.

I began working with Mindy to complete a simple facelift of my daughters room. We were so happy with the results of the update that we hired Mindy to redesign 5 more rooms. Her ability to combine different design elements, color and styles while always keeping in mind function. The house is unrecognizable to those who know me.
When Superstorm Sandy damaged Starland Ballroom, owners AEG Live gutted the building and called on M. Silberstein Interior Design to get this New Jersey landmark venue back on its feet. Starting from the ground up, we developed a design concept that stayed true to what patrons had come to know and love about Starland, while creating something shiny and new.

Rude rude rude!! These women think they are above everyone else and my experience with them was nothing short of horrendous. I came in looking to reupholster my sofa and began with “money is no object”. They proceeded to explain that they don’t carry certain fabrics because they simply “don’t like it”. They also began speaking to me in a manner that came across as if I were wasting their time. As any client seeking professional help, I was asking questions to help guide my decision making process, they concluded the brief informational session with a snarky attitude stating “well

I originally went in to have 2 cornices reupholstered and a window treatment made for my daughter's room with some fabric I already had. Once in there I learned that they made custom beds. I worked with Mindy on a bed and a chaise for our master. I went in with a vision on how I wanted them to look and Mindy helped my vision come to life. I can be a controlling and demanding customer but Mindy was so patient and kind. I respect her opinion and design sense. We worked so well together. I had a wonderful experience working with Mindy and plan to work with her more in the future!

What a pleasure it's been working with Mindy, she was insightful with what I wanted to accomplish, and carefully helped me to make all the right decisions. Silberstein is masterful in their upholstery and drapery, and everything they did for me is perfect, the bottom line is my room is absolutely gorgeous!
