A Special Collection

OK, I know this isn't the normal nest collection and to some it is morbid and to others, quite cool. I found these prosthetic WWI eyes in England and well, I just couldn't help myself... so I bought 2 dozen of them in various shades of blue, brown, green and amber.

PS - They really freak my mailman out!

The Hartford, CT Autumn Antique Show

I came got back from exhibiting at the Hartford, CT autumn antique show. There were some amazing antiques there... just amazing. I took a small booth but filled it quite well. The framed Bee folio pages Napoleon's Egypt campaign were a smash hit as were the French ceramic wine barrel numbers.

This display was not part of the show .... I made it as I was unpacking from the show.

If you like any of the pieces from the JCovington antique roadshow .... feel free to call or email.

Stunning Secretaries & Bookcases

This reproduction line of bookcases and secretaries is simply gorgeous. Many are exact replicas of the orginal Regency and Georgian period pieces and 2 of the Victorian campaign pieces have a great Mission look. The finishes are lusterous, rich and regal. They do don't disappoint...even the bottom sides of the drawers are finished! In fact, I furnished my brother's law firm with furniture from this line.... there are over 1,000 pieces not shown!

Note the fine quality and spectacular cuts of the walnut, burl, rosewoodm and mahogany.

*Lastly, ALL of these pieces are in stock and ready for instant shipping!!!! No more waiting 3 or 4 months! Ordering info is located at the bottom of the post.

A 16th Century Mother-Child Painting I found in England

I found this 16th century painting in England.... it came out of a Scottish manor house. Even though it is in rough condition, I absolutely love the mother-child tenderness. More pictures can be seen here.
