Wedgwood - a classic in blue and white - especially the pretty Jasperware.

These items are Made in England and are highly collectible.

We have the Hebe and Eagle annual plate from the year 2000.

It measures 7 1/2 and is in the original blue box.

A great last minute gift for the holidays!

This little collectible clock is in the shape of a classic car from days gone by.

It is made by Fossil and it is a Limited Edition.

It is die-cast and is blue with a silver interior.

There is a small analog clock that is located under the hood.

It comes in a well padded collector tin with the Fossil name on the front of it.

Too cute and the perfect gift for a Classic Car collector - you can find it by clicking on the photo above.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Josiah Spode developed this famous dinnerware in England in the 1780’s.

It was named Spode China and was created as dinnerware from the orient became scarce and the demand for it became great in England.

He developed a formula for bone china and the glazing for this earthenware that is still used today.

We have several plates from the Spode Blue Room collection in various patterns that can be found here.

These classic blue and white patterns are beautiful and it is no wonder they have stood the test of time with their popularity.

Our inventory doesn’t contain many antique items, but the few that we do have are kind of neat.

You will find them under the Collectibles category in the store.

We spent an afternoon browsing through a local antique store this past weekend.

There were so many unique things there - all the beautiful glass creations, the jewelry, kitchen items, and even furniture and wall hangings.

You just don’t find these types of things anymore except in a store like this.

An afternoon wasn’t really enough to browse everything there, and the selection was so vast that any collector would find a treasure.

We found lots of great things, but most of the items were a bit pricy.

Perhaps next time we will have better luck.

If you get a chance to visit one of these little treasure shops, take a minute to enjoy the unique, one of a kind items they have to offer.

While watching PBS the other night, I heard a statement made by a collector regarding his collectible items. He was talking about the historical content and sentimental value each item has as he carefully held each treasure.

He considered himself the caretaker of this item, not the owner. He is taking care of it until he can pass it on to his children, which in turn will be caretakers also. He purchased it from a caretaker who also watched over it for many years.

Each collectible has its own history which is preserved with care by the current owner so it can be passed along to the next caretaker to cherish.

We offer many modern collectibles along with a few that have been previously owned and cared for by other who appreciated their value. Take a look at what we have available here for treasures to start or add to your collection. Thanks for looking!
