I began collecting vintage as a child, mentored by my Grandmother. As she did, I find that the craftsmanship of the old artisans is often incomparable to modern items. IMHO, a machine embroidered tablecloth just can't match the craftsmanship and creativity of one done by hand.

I tend to rotate things in and out of my living space and studio, mostly as a reflection of my current state of mind. I feel that the objects people surround themselves with speak of where they have been and of where they are going...and most certainly how they aspire to be.

To the best of my knowledge, all my vintage items are 20 years or older.

Thanks for visiting my shop. Please feel free to contact my with any questions.

Continuing a Tradition...

I opened the Urban Attic because I inherited both my Grandmother and Mother's fine appreciation for art. My Grandmother converted an old chicken coup on the Family Farm into a little shop, and became a very well known antique's dealer. She taught me to appreciate the craftsmanship and quality of old items and instilled in me the idea of longevity.
My Mother is a 'secret' artist who never was able to develop her own skill due to the demands of work and parenting, so sought out things by other artists that made her Spirit soar.

From her, I learned that Art is its own language, no matter its form.

The Urban Attic opened with objects I admired but knew didn't fit my 'language' and needed to be passed on. I admit I am more into the hunt than all the work that goes into listing <G> but I try to offer up things I find that are unique, well structured, and have a sorta 'song' about them.
