Antique Warehouse

Specialists in 17th- to 19th-century European Antiques, and mid-century modern.

In the modern era, antiques are no longer meant just to fill space and serve their practical purpose. Antique and vintage furnishings are now recognized as decorative works of art, focal points and conversation pieces around the house. In other words, they are now recognized for what they truly are: things of beauty. Quality pieces of art that have survived a bye-gone era where quality of craftsmanship was exceptional, and mass production was virtually unheard of.

An antique fills a space with charm, elegance and grace like nothing else. It's little wonder that designers and collectors alike search the globe to find just the right piece.
