The store owners are happy to discuss with you what they carry and will keep your "wish list" in mind as new items come in.

There is a great resurgence of popularity among collectors of furniture from the1950's through the 1970's and can be found by looking at the bios of the stores listed on our site. Most interior designers will be mixing antiques and vintage when they decorate your home because it shows the "evolved look over time" which is what most people are looking for today.

If it's from the 1960's or the 1970's and it falls into the category of fashion or design, it may be considered "retro". The term retro-fit is sometimes applied to designs that imitate older styles. Owl memorabilia, bar items, old metal fans, ash trays, radios, and flashlights , are all collectibles that can be considered retro. A few of the colors that are associated with the term retro, especially in the 1950's and 1960's are orange, gold, and avocado green.
