Have you visited Atlanta Vintage Market yet? It opened last fall in downtown Douglasville, Georgia. It is located in the old Western Auto building (still has the vintage sign hanging out front).

Vintage Finds at Ben’s Antiques
The yard sales are still few and far between and I haven’t seen many estate sales listed that I have wanted to attend. With that being said, I decided to stop by my local antique mall, Ben’s Antiques and Market (where I used to have my booth), to see what …

Scott Antique Market January 2019
Scott Antique Market got off to a good start this year. Normally I try to go on Thursdays when they open but I couldn’t make it until Friday last week. I think a lot of dealers took the month off in December so it was nice to see them back …

This Week’s Vintage Finds

Royal Worcester Antique Compote
While the Caughley Polychrome platter was the highlight of last month’s auction finds, this 1800s Royal Worcester antique compote was another exciting purchase from that same auction. I actually bought them together in the same lot. This compote is truly a beautiful piece. It has a white background and a …
