Introduction I have been collecting and dealing in all kinds of Antiques and collectibles for over 40 years. I have been an appraiser, owned a shop; operated an antiques auction facility for several years. I have worked as a "finder" for antiques & collectibles items. I really loved that because I met a lot of wonderful people from all over. It worked like this someone would hire me to find a special piece of jewelry, furniture or other items. I never had to handle the item just locate $ sell. I have decorated my entire home in Art Deco because it is my favorite period. I have decided I wanted to blog about all that I am doing on the net: my experiences & all the the wonderful people I have met and their great collections,I will share them on this blog.
