NEW ARRIVALS, NEW SALE ITEMS and Antique Maps!!!

 
 Some people just love looking at maps.  Whenever we are off in a new direction my sister and my nephew are the ones who must have the map.  I am a GPS gal myself as I have been known to turn a map upside down to figure out which turn to make (worst sense of direction on the planet).  Map lovers can look at maps for hours whether they are charting a course or just passing the time.

I know Restoration Hardware and other stores sell reproduction antique maps but an original antique map is a wonderful piece of art and a rich treasure.

If the location has meaning to you its presence in a room holds more significance and becomes a wonderful conversation piece.

I love this beach house room with the addition of the local maps.

From Elle Decor these 2 maps look like Long Island and may show the changes in the area over the years.

This wall grouping most certainly is the home of a map enthusiast. What an interesting focal point in this room and a great spot to linger.

These framed maps can be removed from their display shelves for a closer look....

8.  This iconic sailfish came from the famous Crystal Room Restaurant in East Hampton, affectionately called "Clam Pies" because of their famous sign and highly kept secret clam pie recipe. . Opened in 1959,  this thriving and swanky restaurant in its day,  was purchased by restauranteurs as a banquet hall because "the land is cheap and we can raise our chickens and turkeys".  Boy things certainly have changed on the east end since 1959. Many east end weddings and events took place on site and a favorite photo spot was the extensive gardens with the chickens, I guess!
Originally priced $825.00 on sale for $495.00.
