We are Larry and Margaret, founders and owners of 3rdfinds. We both come from Europe and have lived on four continents throughout the years. 3rdfinds is the reflection of our interests and our background. The idea of the company was born from the appreciation and desire to preserve the beauty and history. Especially the history of art and craft of the people who lived before us.
We handpick and select our vintage and antique treasures from estate sales, estate auctions, and flea markets. We approach all the estates with the utmost respect and gratitude for people who left those magnificent pieces behind.
Those little gems were once curated, loved, cherished, and cared for by their owners. Our goal and dream is to assure a continuous stewardship for those unreplaceable objects.
We source our antiques and vintage items from grand homes, magnificent mansions, and breathtaking estates in our region, where special attention was given to objects of very high quality and exceptional beauty. Integrating those items into interiors can dramatically transform the design, adding the artisanal and personal touch to your space.
Antiques and vintage items we curate and have in our offer are unique, one of a kind, and often irreplaceable. They compliment, enrich and elevate any interior, making it more attractive and valuable and ensuring that it stands the test of time and does not go out of style.
Every old object tells it's own story and has it's own soul. It allows us to touch and hold the past. All of the pieces in our store deserve to be loved again, cherished again and cared for again.
We are very privileged to offer you the souvenirs of life lived. Find their soul and hear their story. Let that story go on...
