Hello and welcome to The Vintage Cape. Although I'm not new to Bonanza by any means, I haven't been very active the past couple of years, and thought it was about time I updated my profile. I'll be retiring from my day job in a few months and plan to spend a lot more time here, updating my booth and maybe even opening a web store.

I sell a wide variety of antiques and collectibles. My passion is vintage and antique costume and sterling silver jewelry. Most that I offer for sale is hand picked estate jewelry that is at least 50+ years old. Occasionally, I'll have a quality designer piece from the eighties listed, but never any of the mass produced Made in China junk that has flooded the marketplace. I've also amassed a large collection of buttons, more china, glassware and silver plate flatware and such than I'll need in three lifetimes. One never knows what I might bring home from an estate sale of auction.

My avatar is one of my rescue cats, Jack, when he was a kitten. He's a big boy now, weighing in at about 18 pounds. He lives with his step-brother named Timmy, another rescue and our canine companion, Jillian. Adopted from the shelter in June of 2005 as a quivering, malnourished, and neglected young collie, Jill has blossomed into a gorgeous dog and is a much loved member of the family.

I hope you'll drop by my booth, browse a while and perhaps uncover some special treasure from a bygone era.
