Today we’re excited to introduce Reyne Hirsch, an expert in 20th Century Design. Reyne acquires items for privates, corporations and museums. Reyne says, “In this industry, you are always in the hunt for the unique. Never limit yourself to just stores and shows. Flea markets and garage sales can often turn up great treasures!” Reyne also blogs about collecting for numerous national publications, and has spent 15 years on television appraising, and discussing what’s hot in collecting.

The rooms illustrated in each photo are rooms in clients homes that have incorporated vintage finds into their every day life. All items have been found at sales for $25 or less.

A dining room table housing numerous individual candlesticks can create a magical stage for a holiday feast. Here are a couple from Jasper Castle:

These shots are of random Italian and American mid century modern vases and bowls found at yard sales that can be used in the living room on a side table, or your coffee table as color to make a room pop!

A small corner that isn’t large enough for a chair can be the perfect spot for a mid-century modern vase.

The coffee table is a great place to showcase Italian glass candy dishes, ashtrays and blown glass animals.
