I went out to visit the Maryland Antiques Show this morning and thought I’d share some things I liked. The Show runs Saturday and Sunday in Towson, Maryland, just north of Baltimore.
Finnegan Gallery Antiques They are always a favourite booth.
The Spare Room Antiques
Some of the local decorators did rooms for the show.
Patrick Sutton
Laurie FitzGerald at Stony Run Antiques
Jay Jenkins of Jenkins Baer
These were my two favourite pieces.
A miniature dog’s head whistle in ivory. Wonder why!
Gorgeous ivory-handled cutlery.
More information on the Maryland Antiques Show is here.
That clock face is really fabulous!! I've never heard of this show - glad you shared it.
ReplyDeleteLoi, it used to be called the Hunt Valley Antiques Show.
DeleteI too love the dog whistle. Perhaps it was a whistle to call one's dog when out hunting fowl. Either way, it is a charming piece.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting on this show. Not too many of them left in my area of the country, unfortunately, but I do try to get to those that remain each year.
Most are now furniture and accessories shows.
DeleteThat cutlery is beautiful. I am a sucker for old signs, too. What are those porcelain/china things on the wall? Someone comments above - clock face?? I know my grandma had a lovely clock (I always thought it was a china plate) of this type - I never realized there would be so many holes though. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI nhave some cutler that is similar to this set.
DeleteLOVE the old sign "Open for Inspection" -- gorgeous -- maybe hung in a wonderful white kitchen with black counters? Such wonderful displays -- so creative! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCheers! Jan at Rosemary Cottage
It is a great sign!
