Boutique: Treasures from the November 2010 Buyer’s Trip

Three pairs of beautiful vintage shoes, gloves, figurines, hatpins, teaspoons, more…

I spent last weekend down in Sacramento, CA, shopping for interesting things for the Boutique.  I feel quite satisfied with my finds, which is a feat in itself since I’m extremely picky and it was looking like I wasn’t going to find a single thing to buy there for awhile, haha!  However, I did bring back some absolute treasures, and here’s a little peek at them.  They’re not yet listed in the Boutique shop, but will be there soon!

Vintage driving gloves – crochet and leather

A sweet little 1950s porcelain Collie.  We’ve named him “Pinkston.”

These are salt & pepper shakers with a cool pewter stand.

1940s beaded clutch purse, perfect condition, and even has the original mirror inside.

Absolutely stunning forest green suede and leather 1920s shoes. Size 7.5. A little vintage ceramic owl too.

These are just a few of the items I’ve collected for the American Duchess Boutique’s launch into vintage and antiques, as well as costume pieces, 18th c. stays, and our signature t-shirts.  More to come!  I will let you all know when everything has been listed in the shop.  If you would like to reserve or purchase an item NOW, please e-mail me: [email protected]
