Our interests and experience have changed and expanded over the years. Like the antiques and art market, our own collections and inventory are wide and eclectic. Our favorite areas now are American and Scandinavian folk art, fine art, and old things that are colorful and unusual. Because our interests evolve we often sell from our own collections. At any time here, you might find Scandinavian rose painted boxes. Duck and ice fishing decoys. Japanese netsuke and woodblock prints. Oriental rugs. Nippon porcelain. Metal toys from the 1930’s, 40’s and 50’s. Walking sticks. Dolls. Portraits on ivory. Samplers. Hooked rugs.

We sell just about anything people collect. We specialize in unique pieces in original condition. We also will shop for clients with specialized interests, such as Chinese bound foot shoes and Haitian art. We sell at the twice-yearly Spirit of the Past antiques show in Renton, Washington, and are vendors at the Pacific Galleries Antique Mall in Seattle. Please click our Shows page to see many items available for sale in addition to the ones pictured in the categories on this site. We also sell on eBay, under the name Seattlefolk.

We thank you for visiting our site and hope you will come back often. Please contact us if you have any questions or suggestions. And let us know if you have items like those on these pages you are interested in selling. We’re always interested in adding to our own collections as well as those of our customers.
