Antiques Buying Trip Day 8: Gas Up
After a week driving across Europe visiting antique markets and wholesale dealers, we've finished buying a wonderful selection of antique furniture, chairs, and vintage chandeliers. We'll still visit another indoor market to focus on smaller decorative items, such as Blue Delft ceramics, vintage chalkware and enamelware, and antique religious treasures. However, as we no longer need the large van to...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 7: Meet Mishka!
After a week in Europe, Greg and I met Mishka, a very friendly and helpful French bulldog. We love animals - in fact all five of our fuzzy children were rescued, so we always enjoy making new fuzzy friends. As you know, we spend a good deal of time loading the van during our Antiques Buying trips, so it was...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 5: Snow Blizzard
We weren't expecting snow in March, but we ended up driving through a snow blizzard in the French countryside on the fifth day of the Antiques Buying trip. After taking care of business for EuroLuxHome.com in the hotel room in the morning, we headed out with a few flakes coming down. By later in the afternoon, a good five inches...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 4: Counting Cubes
After a few days on the road buying antiques in Europe, Aimee and Greg at EuroLux Antiques count how many cubes of antique furniture and vintage chandeliers they've purchased. If we decide to bring in a 45 foot container, we still have quite a bit of space left to fill. Guess we'll have to keep buying! Aimee shows off a...

Antiques Buying Trip: Shipping Containers
"How do you ship your antique furniture from Europe?" is a question we are often asked at EuroLux Antiques. All of the wonderful antiques and vintage lighting that we find on an antiques buying trip are loaded in either a 40 or 45 foot container and shipped from Europe to the Port of Charleston in South Carolina. From there the...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 3: Gummi Couture
Sometimes when I'm tired, I get a little silly. On the third day of our Antiques Buying Trip in Europe, I believe jet-lag was catching up with us, as evidenced by my explanation of gummi bear couture. Despite the long days, I hope you're still along for the ride as we search the French and Belgian countryside looking for wonderful...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 3: Street Markets
"Where do you buy your antiques?" is a question we are often asked. Our methods are much like those of Mike and Frank on the popular History Channel TV show, American Pickers. We rent a large van that we drive across the country on a quest to find unusual, interesting, and beautiful antique furniture - we just do our searching...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 2: Join us for Lunch!
Most of our customers volunteer to come on our antiques buying trips, so we thought we'd bring you along on our most recent trip to France and Belgium to stock up on antique furniture and vintage lighting. We've stopped at the grocery store and are now enjoying lunch in the van - won't you join us? Thanks for stopping by...
