What happens to your things
Everything gets cleaned properly before it's photographed. I'm allergic to dust, so that isn't a promise I can quietly skip.
Then it's photographed in daylight, measured, and listed wherever it's most likely to sell: the shop floor, the website, Instagram, Etsy, eBay, Chairish, Facebook Marketplace. A brass lamp and a linen dress don't sell to the same person in the same place.
I price for what a piece is worth rather than for how fast it moves. Sometimes that means a slower sale and a better number for both of us.
Standards
What I take, and what I don't
Patina, minor scratches and honest wear are part of why vintage is worth having. What I can't work with is damage that affects function, or anything that hasn't been cleaned.
For home decor I'm looking for genuine vintage quality. For clothing the requirement is natural fiber. Vintage is a bonus there, not a requirement.
Yes
- Solid brass. Candlesticks, bowls, planters, trays, hardware
- Vintage glassware. Etched, colored, hand-blown, gold-rimmed
- Original art. Oils, watercolors, needlepoint, lithographs
- Ceramics. Studio pottery, earthenware, decorative vessels
- Vintage lighting. Table lamps, sconces, floor lamps with good bones
- Solid wood furniture, well made and structurally sound, no veneer damage
- Natural fiber clothing and accessories. Linen, wool, silk, cotton, cashmere
- Vintage mirrors. Ornate frames, interesting shapes, no foxing
- Woven baskets and natural objects, clean and display-ready
No
- Structural damage. Broken legs, deep cracks, missing components
- Heavy staining on clothing or textiles
- Synthetics. Polyester, acrylic, nylon, non-natural blends
- Fast furniture. Particle board, veneer damage, wobbling joints
- Strong odor. Smoke, mildew or pet that won't wash out
- Reproductions, or anything not genuinely vintage
- Oversized or heavily damaged art
- Everyday mass-market items with no vintage or artisan quality
- Anything that hasn't been cleaned
Bugs are a hard no.
Not sure about a piece? Text a photo to 203-307-5385 before you bring anything in, and I'll tell you honestly whether it's worth consigning here, better off donated, or something to let go of. Most of what I pass on is perfectly fine. It just isn't selling right now.
Terms
The Terms
The Split
40% of the profit to you, by Venmo or check at the end of the month. Take store credit instead and it's 50%.
Payouts
Ask and I'll send it at the end of the month. For anything selling over $500 I'll reach out to you rather than wait.
Pricing
I set the prices, for what a piece is worth rather than how fast it moves. If something hasn't sold in 30 days I may drop it by around 15%.
How Long
Sixty days. After that you have a week to collect anything unsold. Past that it becomes mine to sell, donate or keep.
Drop-Off
Up to ten pieces during shop hours, no appointment. Eleven or more, text me and we'll pick a window. Large furniture needs photo approval first, every angle, before it moves.
Estates & Clean-Outs
A whole house is a different job. Text me overview photos and I'll come to you.
Consignment Agreement
Sign this before your first drop-off. It covers everything above in full: pricing, payment, how long, and what happens to anything unsold.
