The Backstory...
Prickerweed Antiques is the online compendium to M. Sparger Antiques of Mt. Airy, NC.
Mary has assembled a special set of smaller, more shippable items from her amazing collection of antiques & collectibles. The Prickerweed Collection is hand picked from the accumulation of forty years in antiques trading!
Our Etsy shop is new but we've been antiques dealers and collectors for many years. We specialize in fine early furniture, accessories and smalls in original finish and paint. Country items are a specialty. Our home and antiques collection has been featured in Country Living Magazine, Early American Life Magazine and also on televisions' "The Good Life" hosted by Mary Emmerling.
We maintain our 'real world' antiques shop in two buildings on our farm in rural North Carolina. This location is by appointment only. We are also set up at Antique Station in Wytheville, Va. It’s alongside Interstate 81 at 1998 East Lee Highway so be sure to stop in next time you’re passing through! See our blog for contact info, Google maps and more…
