These little delights are always a joy to find. Small little frilly white glass shades. We found them in the USA, and brought them back to doctor. Victorian, complete with their brass collars. We put some black twisted cord on them, and a plug – they’re ready! We have 8 in total.

Look at this handsome piece of craft work. Standing tall at about 7 feet, and as wide at 4. The stand tapers back, some nice decoration around the top and scrolling down the sides. Crackling paint coats the entire outsides, giving it a smokin hot patina. The entire unit is slotted, therefore it being used for brochures in a...

This guy is hanging out in the shop these days. Sitting on our skully wheatpaste wall, and looking oh so handsome. Across the top are three drawers, meticulously inlaid with a wood piping, and lined. The cupboards across the bottom are opened through skeleton key access. A real charming piece, and great for storage as well.

This guy is highly unusual and fun. Wood (looks to be teak) slats are connected together with cork balls. Metal collar at the top to keep everything in place. We put new guts in it – so its up to date in that regard. We also added a huge soft white light bulb – just to keep it funky. The cord is long enough to swag,...

This has to be one of the more ‘out there’ signs we’ve gotten. A hair replacement/barbershop sign. The sign shows a poor man with a few less follicles than desired, and next image ‘BAM’ he’s got a new haircut. Sign is large, measuring approximately 6′-6″ x 4′. Hand painted on

Check it out! This table just rolled in from the workshop, and dang, I think they nailed it. The base being rolled metal, custom made to fit a wood top. The client wanted it weather proofed so that it would go outside. After a little bit of engineering, deciding which products to use and what colour they wanted the top, we...

These guys. THESE GUYS. Period Deco chairs, original mohair, chromed out frame. The story goes that they are from a gentlemen’s cigar lounge type club in Ottawa. Now we can’t photograph the comfort, but trust us, these things know how to treat a lady. Chivalry, isn’t dead folks, it exist in these chairs. They...

This guy is a heavy one. Top made of solid maple, even some birds eye popping through too. Basic post base. Vice on the side and the top has a little bit of wear, however not beat up very much. This guy is smaller than the usual beasts we bring in, measuring in at 6′ x 2′-3″.

This little guy packs a big punch. He’s got a hook, some sconce lighting, even a socket (probably not up to building code!). It has a great rack on the top for storage, and the mirror swings open to reveal a bunch of great glass shelving. There’s even a chrome hook! Bells (ring ring) and whistles (toot toot).
