Antiques Galore!

The HF team was hard at work last week merchandising a truck full of antiques.  The pieces are old.  They are heavy as hell.  And they are just divine.  Check out some of the great pics that were taken.


 The t-shaped pillar took a small army of 8 people to set up.  It's over a hundred years old and weighs in at a slim 900 pounds.

 I'm not sure if I should be scared or laugh.  This statue will be a conversation piece for sure.

 Two remarkably heavy, stone face Buddhas sit on top of this beautiful Amazon Buffet.

 The India Buddha statue stands at about 8 feet tall.

 The hand detail work on this 10 foot high pillar is exquisite.

The Naga tribe, one of the last headhunter tribes, used this antique as a rice mill.  It is cut out of one solid tree and makes for a dramatic, 12 foot coffee table.

The rice mill/coffee table makes for a nice decorative pillow display too.

The craftsmanship on this antique door is impeccable, featuring hand in-lay mother of pearl.  

The unique brass hardware on the door is one of 8 antique doors that were brought in.
