I guess this is as good a place as any to begin our interesting adventure.
My name is Damien i am part of this wonderful family owned business. our shop started in 1996 at this stage i was 12 years old. The shop started on a whim and a prayer over the course of 1 weekend, we completely converted an old run down lawnmower workshop into an antique shop... this was done with some heavy cleaning a lick of paint and a substantial amount of stock that my mother had hidden away in storage rooms while my dad was running his civil engineering company.
Our first month was spent doing alot of puzzles and hoping that people would come in... however we pulled through and have Never looked back.
16 years down the line and we now have 1 of the largest antique and collectable shops around selling nearly anything you can think of.
each of us "specialising" in different items after all you cant know everything about everything. this is a job where you never stop learning and even when you think you know all there is to know about something you probably dont.
this blog will be dedicated to the never ending thirst for knowledge and the day to day findings in our shop.
please feel free to contact us via the contact us page with questions, if you have items to sell also feel free to contact us
