Here are some wonderful pieces:




 An exquisite pair of French Lyre back chairs with needlepoint seats!


1890-1910 American cut glass brilliant table lamp. on a lovely mahogany side table with a porcelain jewelry box and antique frame with convex glass picture of a young lady. 






Late 1800's hand-carved Meerschaum pipe with original case.  It was brought to the United States at the turn of the 20th century by a German immigrant.  


It has been a tough time supervising, nap time .....hope to see you this weekend! Or let us know if you have seen something you are interested in and we will make arrangements.

it is a special and beautiful Sunday!  I want to wish all the beautiful two- & four-legged Mom's out there a very special Mothers' Day!  

I was excited to give my Mommy a new mini-rose plant.  She loved it!

May 9 ~ It's a beautiful day and beautiful new items!

Look at a few more items Mommy found!

A hand-tooled book of French songs (Royal Edition ~ printed in the U.K.). Songs are in both English & French.



Check out this sketch book from 1926!  Not all of the pages are completed, but it looks like it might  be architectural sketches.





Tea anyone!  
A hotelware creamer and five really lovely ironstone demitasse cups & saucers from Spain!  We have five of these.

To go along with that tea, some snack plates! Three are available.



Wow! An 1800's Schramberg platter. Fantastic!


So many more pictures we have to take and get ready for our Antique Show next weekend.  The Lakewood 400 Antiques Market is May 17-19 in Cumming, Georgia.

If you see something here, we can make arrangements for your purchase, shipping or local pick up. Send an email or make a post here with any questions.

Remember your Mom and those special other mothers this Sunday on Mother's Day.

Hope to hear from you or see you soon! Thanks for looking!

The Sands of Time

Good Sunday Morning to everyone!

Look what we found yesterday that is so interesting.  Mommy says it is an hour glass.  It looks like a smaller version of the great big one the witch had in the movie the Wizard of Oz where Dorothy and Toto watched the sand quickly emptying!  Scary that one was, but not this one, it is very neat.

Mommy said if I could run around the yard and chase the squirrels and get back on the deck before the sand completely runs out, then I am very fast and might get a treat!  Yummmm.....carrots.  

Here are a few pictures:




Still shopping....check back for more interesting pictures and stories soon!
