Art & Garden Antiques

Some of my favorite antique pieces, other than salvaged wood, have been garden ornaments, such as carved stone sculptures, cast iron statues, vintage granite grindstones or millstones, stone capitals, antique stone sinks, and other items for landscape design and architecture. I am drawn to these pieces because of their age, patina and the time it has taken for nature to enhance these beautiful forms, where the main purpose is to please the eye. Many items here are ideal landscape décor but some are antiques appropriate for your indoor spaces. Contact me with any questions.
