Cort's Emporium is a shop in Zul Logoth that sells player shop furnishings. It is accessed through the archway in the Opal Tunnel.

The proprietor is a stout red-bearded dwarf.

Cort's Emporium, Archway

[Cort's Emporium, Archway] Room: 736007
Under the watchful eye of one of the store's assistants, hardworking dwarves continually haul carts filled with furniture in and out of a large invar-braced archway. A bright orange banner announces, "Cort's Emporium," and is suspended by wires fastened to three limestone stalactites. The massive cavern echoes with the murmurs of business, though the noise is partially muffled by two man-made stone walls that partition the emporium into three distinct areas. A set of wrought iron stairs rises up beyond the confines of the cavern. You also see a stoic dwarven guard.
