Beautiful--and interesting brooch for my wife. Brooch is quality, well-made, and just the right gift--we have several greyhounds.

Antique and Vintage Items

Scouring all over for Unique Vintage and Antiques

I love the search involved in finding bargains and unique items. I search thrift stores and estate sales. I am not one to spend much time at garage sales, but I will stop occasionally.
Even though I was quite the tomboy as a child, I have come to love vintage and antique jewelry. No matter what the item, I have a lot of respect for the quality of the older pieces. Porcelain, glass, prints, all grab my attention. I am always amazed to find something really old, especially items from the 19th century, that are still intact.

The hardest part about this business is seeing your own toys in an antique/vintage store. I am at the end of the Baby Boomers group but I am always amazed to see my old play things on a shelf. Partly because it reminds me of my age and partly because I wish I had saved some of those now highly valued toys!
