Observations, Comments And Questions Welcome
This site contains a wide ranging collection of antiques, some dating back thousands of years, others only 100 or so, but all in a single, privately-owned, uncatalogued collection. I am slowly adding more photos and descriptions as I build it and receive feedback. The collection is primarily European, Asian and American, but the odd piece of African art pops up from time to time.
My goal is to add as much information about these items as possible and make them available to those interested in them from an historical perspective. This is not an auction site!
Check back periodically, as I will update and add to this site regularly.
