Inside Maria's Farmhouse...
We bid you to pause for a moment of bliss, sipping the warmth of a freshly steeped beverage, while turning the pages of our shop.
°¨¨°º♥✿♥º°¨¨°
Hello and welcome to Maria's Farmhouse.
I am both owner and founder of Maria's Farmhouse (www.mariasfarmhouse.com). I value the time-tested ways of living with integrity, simplicity and hard work, centering on God, family and my business.
With over 30 years of experience in antique and vintage goods, I opened my shop on Etsy in 2011. I enjoy travelling through the States in search of finding new homes for forgotten treasures, seeing the potential in every piece and sourcing them with you in mind.
As a native New Yorker, I have always had a keen eye for antique and vintage treasures. I also take pleasure in crafting hand-made items, such as my snow-ladies, pink pumpkins, lavender sachets, hand-dyed doilies and Christmas ornaments. I find beauty in both the humblest and most elaborate pieces.
Between running my shop on Etsy, I enjoy cooking, baking and gardening. Above all, I enjoy life with my hubby, our children and our six grandchildren.
"She is clothed in strength & dignity & she laughs without fear of the future" - Proverbs 31

DISCLAIMER ON ANTIQUE & VINTAGE CHINA
We do our utmost to describe all items as explicitly as possible, providing as much history and detail as is known to us. It should be noted that the items we are selling are both antique and vintage and may in some cases have some age-related wear, such as marks, variations of surface texture, minor scratches naturally associated with use and age.
Our antique and vintage china are in their original condition and were manufactured before today’s stringent safety standards. Please be aware that we do not imply any guarantee of compliance with today’s safety standards. By placing an order, you acknowledge the antique/vintage item(s) we are selling and that we are not liable for any defects arising from wear and tear.
If there's a piece of china that is highly decorated or multi-colored, there is a better chance that it contains lead glazing or decorations using lead, which is why we recommend for decoration purposes only.
Please note that antique and vintage china are more delicate than your everyday china. You will need to be careful about how you handle, clean, and store them.
If you have any questions and/or concerns about the china pieces or tea cups you wish to purchase, please contact us prior to making your purchase. We are always happy to hear from our customers.
°¨¨°º♥✿♥º°¨¨°
We suggest.....
-Hand wash only
-Never put your china in the dishwasher.
-Never put your china in the microwave.
-Always hand wash with a mild soap.
-Do not soak your china. This can cause problems with the glaze, or even chip off the gold leaf.
-Don't use acidic materials, such as lemon, orange juice or vinegar, on your china. If you use lemon in your tea cup be sure to clean and dry it quickly.
-Don't place your china in the refrigerator.
