n.b. I am in the process of rebuilding the web site, so not all links may work while it's under construction, but I'll get to it as quickly as I can...
In the meantime, if you see something that you have questions about, please call or email me.


Just a quick peek at a couple of the newest additions...

Fancy Braided Rug
A Fancy Braided Rug, 8 foot 3 inches in diameter.
There will be a lot of restitching to be done on this rug, but when it's done it will be well worth it!


Shaker Table
The pine breadboard top of this Shaker Work Table has been reset, and it comes from a collection assembled back when it was the fashion to strip off all that ugly paint... It will be priced accordingly.

Eagle Cliff from Profile Lake
An unsigned, naive White Mountain School painting of Eagle Cliff as seen from Profile Lake in Franconia Notch, New Hampshire.
Attic fresh, as-found, in need of a bit of restoration and a good cleaning.
Sorry, already sold...

Cast Iron Flower Box
Cast Iron Flower Boxes, two actually, the other somewhat shorter in length and not retaining nearly as much paint. Both are cracked and broken in places, little more than relics, but what relics they are! European, perhaps Asian... I've never come across anything like them.
