Thinking Outside the Big Box Stores
Purchasing antique, vintage and handmade is better for the planet and the people on it. It’s a more sustainable choice that promotes reuse, reduces consumption and supports a circular economy.
Reduced resource consumption: Vintage and antique items already exist, so buying them doesn't require the extraction and processing of new raw materials and manufacturing, which can be energy-intensive.
Less waste, less pollution: Reusing items keeps them out of landfills.
Durability: Vintage and antique pieces are often built to last with quality materials and craftsmanship.
Respect: Purchasing handmade items honors the artisans that created it and supports their craft’s tradition and techniques for future generations.
Art Procurement
What is Art Procurement?
I locate and purchase art, antiques and vintage goods from a variety of sources to supply independent buyers, non-profits and service organizations with quality items for auctions, galas and fundraisers.
