There's an open market furniture place on Sukhumvit opposite Big C and Bahn and Beyond. Not cheap but good quality.

Thanks for your help. Not a native to Pattaya, so if I park at Big C, should be nearby? 

Confirm am looking for furniture for indoors .

I believe the one he's referring to is across the highway from the Big C/B&B - https://www.google.co.th/maps/@12.9146045,100.8960239,3a,75y,100.2h,87.37t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sbcIzJ3jitiRY8iX2qInH7A!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?hl=en

It's just a standard furniture store offering the same prefab stuff available in every other Thai furniture shop. Wherever you are in the city, there's probably one within a kilometer of you.
(Most will deliver as well.)

If all you are looking for is standard stuff (tables, chairs, wardrobes, beds), let us know where you are in the city and there's probably a store close to you.

If you want higher end, better quality stuff though, you might want to try Decorum on Thepprasit - https://decorum-thailand.com/

(https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/Decorum+Furniture+%26+Decoration/@12.9055012,100.8728623,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x310296638bd03b2d:0x91141c3383695c1!8m2!3d12.905496!4d100.875051?hl=en)

Bonus is that there is a Thai Antique Furniture store just 250 meters further down that street (on the other side) https://www.thaidecorpattaya.com/

(https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/Thai+Decor+Pattaya/@12.9052421,100.8734122,18.46z/data=!4m12!1m6!3m5!1s0x310296638bd03b2d:0x91141c3383695c1!2sDecorum+Furniture+%26+Decoration!8m2!3d12.905496!4d100.875051!3m4!1s0x0:0xefdd8f000e553639!8m2!3d12.9052742!4d100.8727517?hl=en)

Otherwise, you could try a big box store like Index - https://www.indexlivingmall.com/

(https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/Index+Living+Mall/@12.9352859,100.9011202,17.58z/data=!4m12!1m6!3m5!1s0x310296638bd03b2d:0x91141c3383695c1!2sDecorum+Furniture+%26+Decoration!8m2!3d12.905496!4d100.875051!3m4!1s0x310295f088fcebcf:0x62da7e1fccc38415!8m2!3d12.9349155!4d100.9008609?hl=en)

Have you even been to this shop? This is not in any way prefab furniture, it's all handmade quality furniture. The cupboard pictured here (not high end) was bought from a shop outside Bahn and Beyond, but not sure if it's still there.

There's a difference between a shop "outside of Baan and Beyond" and one "across the highway" from the same place. As you can clearing see in the Google Street image, the shop across the highway is full of the common, prefab furniture common to most of those types of stores.

"across the highway" furniture store:

However the shops "outside of Baan and Beyond" have different offerings:

There are (or used to be) numerous stalls set up in the middle of the parking area that also sold furniture/decorations. Not sure if they still have that or not.

That is not the place. It's on the northern side of that complex on the corner where you turn right for Khao Noi. Lots of food stalls on the South side. Plus, the cupboard I pictured I said I bought outside of Bahn and Beyond, not across the road.

Thanks for the input guys, yes its handmade quality furniture am after as per photo below.

Have previously bought at Baan Tawai furniture village in Chang Mai, but not keen to head

that way right now. Will be in Pattaya over New Year so will certainly check out this place

 next to Big C.

First you said:

The only furniture shop on Sukhumvit that is "opposite" Big C is the one I linked (and posted the screen shot of).

Then you reference something you bought from a different shop that is "outside of Baan and Beyond". I posted screen shots of the shops outside of B&B and you tell me that's not the place, it's a totally different place and that you bought the cabinet outside of Baan and Beyond.

If you are on Sukhumvit, you can not "turn right for Khao Noi" - unless you are driving the wrong way on the highway.

The only place on the "northern side" of the Big C/B&B complex is Duck Square. There used to be a furniture place there. They sold factory made tables and sofas. That's where I bought my leather(ette) sofa. That place has been gone for ages and there's a bunch of restaurants there now.
There is also another "Thai furniture" shop on South Pattaya Road between the Suk intersection and the turn off to Big C. Same stuff as the shop that is "opposite" Baan and Beyond.

You may have been referring to the "open market" furniture shop that is in the large, undeveloped lot at the Sukhumvit/Soi Khao Talo intersection. That's not even close to Baan and Beyond

(well, it's a little over 400 meters south, which is close when you are using nuclear weapons I suppose).

Here, let me help you:

The "open market" furniture shop by the Khao Talo intersection:

Haven't been there myself. No photos of the place other than the Google Maps screen shot but it looks like they have a lot of stuff in there.

Another thought. Collingbourne Auctions may have stuff the OP is interested in. https://www.collingbourne-auctioneers.com/General-Auctions?cate=1

(No idea what they have or how they do business. I just remember the old ads on television.)

Doing some googling on the map and I see another place the OP might be interested in.

Saytharn Antiques
https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/Saytharn+Antiques/@12.9455857,100.9209934,14.58z/data=!4m9!1m3!2m2!1santique+furniture+store!6e6!3m4!1s0x0:0x164f13d2292ec05!8m2!3d12.9530367!4d100.9294438?hl=en

Google map fotos of some of the furniture - https://www.google.com/maps/uv?pb=!1s0x3102be2e121023b1%3A0x164f13d2292ec05!3m1!7e115!4shttps%3A%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipPiaVpUDcwyzJcUUJ30zSOqkMpLnOO6Tzpn2MMX%3Dw213-h160-k-no!5sSaytharn Antiques pattaya - Google Search!15sCgIgAQ&imagekey=!1e10!2sAF1QipPiaVpUDcwyzJcUUJ30zSOqkMpLnOO6Tzpn2MMX&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiL9fmDkdftAhUQzjgGHZCoDLUQoiowEHoECBwQAw

The Thai Decor shop on Thepprasit that I linked before seems to have a lot of furniture - https://www.thaidecorpattaya.com/Thai-Decor-Furniture/13132


Another shop on the Darkside is KALAE art & decor

https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/KALAE+art+%26+decor/@12.9110472,100.9192596,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipM1-sr3tTbwTh4H0UQ_KlUKyAi43WF3dyXo0kD2!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipM1-sr3tTbwTh4H0UQ_KlUKyAi43WF3dyXo0kD2%3Dw203-h152-k-no!7i3264!8i2448!4m11!1m3!2m2!1s"antique"+store!6e6!3m6!1s0x0:0x100742297c6c530d!8m2!3d12.9109485!4d100.9192729!14m1!1BCgIgAQ?hl=en

Unfortunately, their website links all go back to the Google Map location. Not sure if that's intentional. However, it does mean that there are only a couple pictures of their shop and not a great deal of info.

That was my first though, I used to visit the old Homeworks there many years ago and had to walk through outside displays of the real old Thai furniture, much carved, heavy hardwood. The sort of stuff one sees a lot  more up around Chiangmai. I moved house and expected it had all gone.
