These are objects that have already lived a life. They were made by hand, used daily, and have arrived here still doing what they were always meant to do. We collect these pieces because they show the kind of character that comes from decades of use, the evidence of the maker’s hand, and a beauty that adds texture, history and warmth to a home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you’re seeing in this collection is just a small selection of our antiques. For the full range of our latest pieces, we recommend a visit to our North Branch, NY location where you’ll find an ever changing collection of pieces that have caught our eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout this piece\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart motif, cut into the base and carried through to the thumb holder, gives this candlestick a warmth and personality that sets it apart from more utilitarian examples. Heart cutouts in metalwork were a common expression of folk craft tradition in rural America and Europe, a small act of decoration on an everyday object. A piece with real character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood antique condition.
