Found just the right chandelier for the front entry hall of the 1870 home I’m restoring. Interesting place with lots of architectural items to look through. Thanks!

Grace Arfstrom
The place is beautiful and offers a fine selection of amazing artifacts - as an antique lover, it is way too rich for my blood as the prices are top dollar (for, admittedly top tier inquiries). I recognize the skill of sourcing and preservation their curators take, so while I have an appreciation for it I was just not their target buyer. It was fun to walk around and appreciate!

Very expensive, but perhaps the best selection of interior/exterior I have ever seen in the state. Also, extra credit for sorting their items meticulously.

Probably THE spot for architectural finds, repairs and one of a kind presentation/statement pieces in Minneapolis. We have purchased many pieces, electric and furniture alike, to kit out our farmhouse Victorian we are tirelessly renovating. Always unique and great finds. Incredible selection of blown glass light/lamp globes, door hardware and art pieces.
