    Welcome back to this fabulous antique mall in the heart of the Houston Heights. We will discover an eclectic mix of classic and modern for every taste and style. Hollywood Regency chiseled brass pineapples steal the show with this symbol of hospitality. Huge Chinoiserie collection showing this versatile design trend. An Italian bust reminds of the famous Goodwill find of an ancient Roman sculpture. Have you heard of the one purchased in Austin, Texas for $34.99? It was authenticated as the bust once belonging to King Ludwig I of Bavaria and has since been returned to a museum in Germany. See the quality French furnishings that will have you shopping this store. Waterford Crystal is well priced and offers great collections. Transferware is showcased in all its beauty. Who knew that egg cups had such an interesting history? We will explore these and much more on this shopping adventure. Vintage linens and a child's Blue Willow tea set are refreshing finds. Lots to show and share!

    I worked in a French Country show room that carried beautiful french furniture. And having designed many french country rooms, it's still my favorite look!

    I love a mixture of Chinoiserie with french country furniture - accent with chintz fabrics. Can't go wrong with blue and white porcelain pieces - never go out of style. 💙

    Great video. I’m learning so much. I too collect the Portmeiron botanic garden pattern. I’ve found pieces at HomeGoods recently. I wrongly assumed all was made in England. I will have to check the back stamps. Hope I don’t have made in China pieces.

      We were in Britain from Canada when the Coronation was on. We thought it would be too busy in London so went up to Edinburgh. We were on the Royal Yacht Britannia while Charles was being coronated. What a lovely place to be with the Queen and her family’s mementos and treasures all around us. They even served us bubbly and shortbread.

    It is so hard to see these beautiful items, especially the Waterford, and know that living in a northern state prevents one from running out the front door and simply driving to this wonderful shop. For now, I will just keep watching as Mary Beth shows us the wonderful things she finds in these shops.

    I have a couple of round Minton trays, one larger than the other in that pattern, but they are factory seconds with a scratch through the back stamp, they look fine to me. I think I bought them in the nineties from T J Max. My house had those small windows (nineties house, with valance size separate window above the long window, great for displaying plates on stands).

    The McKinley act is mainly a tariff act. Raising tariffs as much as 50 percent! The country if origin was of les importance. The tariff act of 1930 was more important in that all items imported into the US had to be marked with the country where it was made. The Democrats replaced the McKinley act with the Wilson- Gorman act in 1894 which lowered the tariffs.

      You are right about that. Antiques are a better quality and price compared to most new furniture pieces.
