For years we've followed our Spring and Fall buying trips to England with a gala weekend in the shop, at which our newly acquired antiques receive their first showing. Before the virus, these events were the high points of our business year, as customers and friends came to Conway from all over the Northeast. The virus has, in addition to keeping us from our semi-annual trips to England, led us to adopt an online format for these openings. Last spring's was very successful for us and for buyers as well, so we're repeating the concept, changing only a few details.

This time we're breaking the opening into three parts:

October 16 & 17 - Part I - The Fox Valley Antiques Show, where we'll be showing 25 pieces, mostly for the first time

November 7 & 8 - Part II - An online event like last May's show, including half of our new offerings

November 21 & 22 - Part III - A second online presentation, including the second half

All three events will be announced to newsletter subscribers in a special email containing details of the show and listing new pieces. Each piece will be illustrated with multiple images and described in extensive detail.

Free shipping is available for most small pieces, and we will be happy to help arrange delivery of larger ones. We expect that small items will be shipped by USPS Priority Mail within a day or two. Any purchase can be held here at no charge for as long as needed.
