There are a few items that have just made it into the recently sold page.

Earlier this year we were fortunate to pick up a pair of barber shop chairs that were taken out of an old Chicago Barber Shop downtown. We sent these Bel-Aire chairs off to our trusty upholsterer where he did a great job. Red-orange material with silver studs around the back, these chairs look great! They were only on the  floor for a few minutes when someone spotted ‘em and was able to take them home.

  

While we were freestylin’ early this summer, we came across a garage sale with a really cool table and chairs. The owner said her mother bought it because it had no corners and was child-safe. But, our truck was overflowing and we had leave this set behind.

    

We found this drawing at the flea market one sunday. I would’ve loved to take it home but my pockets were empty and the car was loaded with some other neat finds. It’s assumed this was a plan drawing for a building that didn’t end up being completed in downtown Chicago.

Also shown is some of our recent finds! We acquired some artist’s materials and equipment. Check out the rest in the recent acquisitions page.

Vintage Danish Style Lounge Chair, Freshly Reupholstered

26/09/2011 § Leave a Comment

When collecting vintage goods it’s easy to get excited about the most recent finds. Just the other day, I was looking at the collection of furniture we have available and took a second, good, hard look at this vintage Danish style lounge chair we were able to pick up this summer…

We searched hard for the perfect fabric, and we found it. The subtle texture accents the wood very nicely. A comfortable chair and a good lookin’ vintage piece.

Currently Available 250-

Thanks to everyone for another Antique and Flea success

Despite some misty (many times downpouring) weather, we had a wonderful turnout. I always appreciate the fantastic conversations I get to have with participating vendors and market patrons. And as always, the hot coffee and blueberry muffins from Lovely Bakeshop were perfect. Can’t wait for the next event!
