Although we try, we can’t really say it is the Christmas season yet. However, this year we are calling this pre-Christmas season the “listening season.” Tread quietly and you will hear the faintly whispered hints from loved ones. Be a good listener and you will be a good giver, which is really the best gift of all.
Red Rubies are the Colours of Christmas
Happy listening everyone! To facilitate your “listening” we have set up a wish list and gift registry cynthiafindlay.com. Encourage those you know to set one up or set up one yourself. We look forward to seeing you for Christmas shopping!
Judith Miller at Toronto Antiques on King
We had a great day with Judith Miller, author of the 2011-2012 Antiques Price Guide, on Tuesday. We loaned Judith a load of interesting and quirky antiques to aid her appearance on Breakfast Television Tuesday morning (she supplied her own fake!). She used our Chinese vase to discuss the rising interest in Chinese antiques and our czech glass lamp to elaborate on vintage decorating trends. We want to thank Manda Group for supplying Miller and organizing this event.
Following her Breakfast Television event, Miller came to Toronto Antiques on King for a book signing, a media interview, and a free identification clinic. We all had a great time, had entirely too much coffee and learned a lot from Miller.
Although we are only blessed with visits from Miller once every few years, we do always have an expert on staff who can talk with you about your treasures. We are always buying interesting jewellery, silver, china, glass and porcelain. Please contact us to make an appointment!
