Artifacts Fine Furniture will close its furniture store this fall in Hyannis, Mass., the Cape Cod Times reported Wednesday.

"There's so many changes in the business," Margaret Ross, co-owner, said in the report. "A furniture showroom is superfluous."

Grand Rapids, Mi.-based Lynch Sales Co. will coordinate a going-out-of-business sale starting this weekend.

Artifacts started after Ross and co-owner John Bredice met as fellow employees at the now-defunct Myers Furniture in Hyannis, where she was a designer and he was a buyer and manager.
