Turning the Table

Jonathan and Stiles are the kind of those people who can pick and choose and then arrange the most gorgeous display with seemingly very little effort. IMG_3653It’s such fun to watch them wander around the shop, picking up glassware from here,IMG_3687 trays from thereIMG_3696 and accessories that I’ve overlooked.IMG_3699 After fiddling around for a few minutes, moving things a few inches to the left or right, swapping pieces, and stepping back to check, a masterpiece is born!IMG_3693

As always, if you see anything that catches your eye, please contact Eric, who will be delighted to help you!

#Shelfie

You’ve heard of a #selfie haven’t you? It’s when you take a picture of yourself with your smart phone.

But there’s a whole other phenomenon called a #shelfie! A shelfie is when you take a picture of a shelf that you’ve carefully arranged. And of course, since we spend our days arranging and re-arranging our shelves and fireplace mantles.

Here are a few #shelfies from around Halcyon House Antiques!IMG_3476IMG_3447IMG_3449IMG_3471

Our crack team of Stiles, Jonathan and Eric are pretty amazing at creating tableaux to delight your eye.

As always, if you see anything that interests you, please contact Eric at the shop.

It’s A Zoo Out Here!

As I was wandering around the shop the other day, I realized that we have a number of animals in stock. Maybe not real animals, but they’re really animals.

How cute is this little Herend fox? Look at those limpid eyes!IMG_3302

This is the ideal gift for the person who’s a little too cocky!IMG_3287

Someone’s in the doghouse!IMG_3284

Let’s horse around sometime!IMG_3289

Who rules the roost in your house?IMG_3291

We’re just swanning around looking fab!IMG_3293

If you’re interested in anything you see here, or on any other post, please call Eric. He’s a teddy bear.

We’re Back!

Well, it’s been quite a time over the last two weeks! Our barn sale was a huge success! We estimate that more than 600 people were there to take advantage of the amazing things we were selling – actually, Stiles was selling them, we just helped.image

After the sale, Eric headed to the beach while the rest of us stayed in town to recuperate. The shop is back open now and we’ve got some great things for the rest of the summer! Stop by and say hey!
