This petite piece I bought at an Estate sale in New York. I asked the auctioneer if he knew anything about it and he said that the couple were French and maybe brought it with them from Paris. Nah, I thought and bought it anyway as it was so unusual. Several months later the truck arrived with it and other pieces. It was adorable and in perfect condition. I was cleaning the sticky cubbies when I thought I smelled pears. Could it be? As I cleaned it and applied waterproof paint, my mind wandered to the two of them standing on their Juliet balcony overlooking the Seine sipping Poire. Maybe, maybe not. Who knows the memories this piece holds but I am wishing it makes new ones in your home. This is in original condition, except painting and adding protective pads on the metal feet. The size makes it perfect for small spaces with a big impact.

Living a life of design has always been my niche. I fell in love with combining the art of the story and personality to create the perfect look for characters. In fact, I worked on multiple Emmy award winning television shows during my 25 years as a Costume Designer. After retiring from the film industry, I was ready for a new challenge. Now I bring antiques back to life. The way I see it, each piece requires something specific, that perfect formula that will highlight the beauty within. I see that potential and work to resurface the splendor each piece once displayed. But this takes education. Being mentored by a renowned artist, I earned my Certification in Old World Finishes and European Finishes. I have studied art history, furniture restoration, furniture age, wood identification, and leaf gilding. I have applied my history and design background to many mediums, including Venetian plaster, fabric, Eglomise, handmade wallpaper and I have learned trompe l’oeil from a Disney artist. I continue to learn to make sure that I have all the skills to compliment every piece. My passion for this work is broad. My design and history background aides me in creating unique, one of a kind looks. My paints do not contain any VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and they are safe for you, your children and pets. I live in the Pacific Northwest with my husband, three dogs and my rose gardens.
