Precious Ruby Home and Decor is a retail furniture and home accessories store located in Oklahoma City that stocks mid-range to upscale furnishings, décor objects, and seasonal items for residential customers designing or refreshing living spaces. The store operates as an independent retailer rather than a chain outlet, positioning it between big-box furniture warehouses and high-end interior design showrooms in the local market.
Precious Ruby carries furniture pieces (sofas, dining tables, bedroom sets, accent chairs), decorative accessories (mirrors, wall art, throw pillows, candles), lighting fixtures, and seasonal holiday décor. The inventory rotates seasonally and trends toward transitional and farmhouse-influenced aesthetics, with a secondary selection of contemporary pieces. The store is owner-operated and sources from both national manufacturers and smaller vendors, which means stock on specific items is not unlimited and popular pieces may sell through before restocking.
Furniture pricing typically ranges from $400 for accent chairs to $2,500 for sectional sofas, with dining tables between $600 and $1,800 depending on size and material. Décor accessories run $15 to $300, with wall art, mirrors, and lighting fixtures at the higher end of that range. Seasonal items (Christmas trees, outdoor planters, holiday figurines) are stocked October through December and January through March, respectively. The store does not offer custom upholstery or made-to-order pieces; all items are floor samples or catalog orders from existing inventory. Prices are fixed and not negotiable.
Oklahoma City has three primary furniture retail tiers. Big-box chains like Ashley Furniture HomeStore and Mor Furniture for Less undercut Precious Ruby on price by 20 to 35 percent but offer limited style variety and longer delivery lead times (4 to 8 weeks for special orders). At the opposite end, interior design firms such as those operating from offices in Nichols Hills charge consultation fees ($150 to $300 per hour) and work exclusively with clients on full-room or whole-home projects, with furniture costs 40 to 60 percent higher than retail. Precious Ruby occupies the middle ground: it allows walk-in browsing without appointment, stocks items for immediate or near-term pickup, and carries curated pieces at price points accessible to homeowners on a moderate budget who want to avoid both warehouse uniformity and design-firm overhead.
This store works well for renters and new homeowners furnishing an apartment or first house, empty nesters downsizing, or anyone replacing worn pieces on a single room. It suits customers who want to browse in person, see fabric and finish in natural light, and take home small accessories the same day. The store does not suit customers seeking ultra-budget pricing, custom sizing, or design consultation; it also does not serve clients wanting either cutting-edge contemporary pieces or high-end traditional antique furniture.
Customers park in a dedicated lot directly in front of the building. Staff greet visitors at entry but do not pressure sales; the layout is open, allowing self-directed browsing through furniture zones (living room, bedroom, dining, accessories) organized by room type. Pieces are tagged with price, dimensions, and material content. The store holds items on the floor for 48 hours with a phone call to confirm, or customers may purchase for delivery, which is available within Oklahoma City proper for a fee that varies by item weight and distance (typically $50 to $150 for single pieces, verified upon purchase). No appointment is necessary, though calling ahead (to confirm a specific item is in stock) is recommended for high-ticket furniture buys.
Precious Ruby operates Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. (hours are subject to seasonal variation during holiday periods; confirm before visiting on a holiday week). The store is located in a standalone building with street-level access and adequate parking. It accepts cash, card, and check. No online ordering or curbside pickup is offered; all transactions occur in-store.
Precious Ruby fills a specific gap in Oklahoma City's home furnishings market by offering approachable, curated pieces at prices below design-firm rates and with the browsing flexibility that chain warehouses do not provide. For homeowners wanting to see and touch furniture before committing, it delivers both selection and reasonable lead times.
