Some objects are small, but they arrive carrying an entire world with them.Victorian practicality, with a very refined sense of drama.
These Victorian gold-filled ladies’ watch chains were not simply practical things. They belonged to a time when even utility was expected to be beautiful. A watch, a key, a lorgnette, or a small personal treasure could be attached to them — but the chain itself was already a piece of jewellery.

What makes these especially charming are the sliding guards: little jewelled ornaments that move along the chain and allow the length to be adjusted. One with a starburst, one with green stones, one with those soft opalescent blue cabochons .

Vintage Large Italian Cameo Brooch / Pendant in 800 Silver Frame
The 800 mark is a traditional European silver standard, meaning the metal is 80% silver. It is genuine silver, though slightly lower in purity than sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver. This standard was widely used in Italy and across continental Europe, especially for decorative objects, jewelry, and finely framed pieces
Available in the shop this week end

Just a quiet afternoon in our Saskatchewan garden ...Or at least that was the request.
AI, naturally, added drama, mystery, and some decoration in the background.
The surprises, clearly, are not just in our shop.

When one has waited long enough for dinner, etiquette must occasionally surrender to the hammer. (Antique style white and blue cheese dish available at the Sinking Canoe)

Perfect for anyone who believes winter is not an excuse to disappear into a sad little parka.
We have a beautiful collection of vintage 80s coats available now: excellent condition, high quality, mostly around size 12, in wool and other properly dramatic materials. Big collars, strong shapes, serious presence — the kind of coats that do not quietly “go with everything,” because they have better things to do.

Not all of them are in the shop at the same time, so if you see one in the next videos I post that catches your eye, just ask us. We can bring it in for you to try.

Summer is being rude, so come hide among cheap temptations.
We have created a new little corner in the shop for treasures that are tired of behaving expensively.
The Cupboard of Temptation is filled with charming things at very friendly prices — the sort of prices that make good judgment quietly leave the room.
They are priced to flee, and frankly, so should they.

One Kept the Uniform. The Other Took the Idea.
A 1952 size 11 military jacket by Sterling Clothing Co. Ltd. — well cut, dramatically oversized.
Beside it: 11 yards of vintage Cranston Print Works Company “VIP” screen-print floral cotton, quietly suggesting a better plan.
