Our experience spans more than 30 years. We have walked the markets from Brimfield to Nebraska, attended countless urban and country auctions, shopped the shops and private sources, stood in line at tag sales, collected aggressively, networked with other dealers and collectors, and displayed at shows in Nashville, Chicago, New Hampshire and points east and west for the last 25 years. We have shaped our "eye" over years of experience and the education serious dealers gain from something other than a regional life exposure.

We are Midwesterners and are known for our integrity and the unusual quality of our objects. Our customers are represented by some of the biggest names in the antiques and folk art world.

We specialize in objects of distinction and memorable qualities that remove them from more common offerings. We are attracted to art and whatever form that art may assume. Form, texture, quality and object interest guide our selections.

Welcome to our website.
