Flagship Tour- Away Antiquing

Our flagship experience is a private, guided antiquing tour curated around your interests, pace, and goals. Clients receive exclusive access to trusted shops and dealers, along with historical context, market insight, and hands-on guidance. The focus is not just on finding something beautiful, but on learning how to hunt with confidence and discernment. We coordinate local delivery for any pieces you find to save you time & stress!

Ideal for:
First-time or emerging collectors and design lovers seeking a private, educational introduction to antiquing.

Collecting & Design Consultations

One-on-one virtual consultations designed to help clients thoughtfully integrate antiques into their home, a project, or an evolving collection. Guidance is grounded in period, proportion, material, and provenance, with sourcing and strategy tailored to your vision. Each session is focused on clarity, confidence, and informed decision-making. Shipping & delivery for locally sourced items is available.

Ideal for:
Homeowners, designers, and collectors seeking direction when sourcing or styling antiques.

Group Antiquing Experiences

Curated antiquing outings for small groups celebrating a shared occasion, such as birthdays, bachelorettes, or corporate retreats. Each experience is customized to balance discovery, education, and enjoyment while maintaining respect for dealers and spaces. Group size and scope are intentionally limited to ensure a meaningful experience.

Ideal for:
Friends, teams, or communities looking for a thoughtful, culture-driven group experience.
