Discovering this vintage furniture shop was a true delight! Nestled in the Funk Zone, it's a little treasure chest of timeless, quality pieces; even though it’s a small space there’s a lot to take in! I left with a beautifully reworked Danish ceramic wall sconce. If you appreciate quality, history, and exceptional service, this shop is a must-visit!
Hello Matthew - thank you so much for visiting my little shop and leaving this wonderful review. It was a pleasure meeting you and thank you for appreciating the level of research and care that goes into each piece. I'm so glad you found a treasure to take home with you. I hope our paths cross again, Tracey

What a find! This store sells authentic hard to find mid century modern furniture, art and accessories. Beautifully put together vignettes and a very friendly owner, who generously shares her vast knowledge of her merchandise along with tips on what else to do in the Funk Zone. If you find it closed on the day your there call to schedule an appointment. Don’t miss this one.
