VINTAGE FINDS OF THE WEEK.

Dear All

Sourcing for vintage furniture  is really fun and exciting. You don't know when they will appear. They may be at a far flung place or they can be right under your void deck. They can be in  huge, grand bungalows or  in tiny apartments. You may think that you have seen all the designs and motifs after all these years of loving vintage furniture, then suddenly you are swept and awed by a design or motif unseen before, though they bear the characteristic features of a particular period. A good find, a rare find, keeps the adrenalin going, and makes our day.
