About Us

Welcome to A Touch of Whimsy. I have been actively selling on Internet venues for over 15 years (and loving it). I enjoy the stories my buyers share with me as to why they purchased a particular piece and the joy that brings them when just the right item finds it way back home.

I purchase at auctions all around the Pennsylvania and New Jersey area (yes that’s probably me sitting in the front row),as well as selling for family and friends. I research to the best of my ability the vintage and origins of the items in my store. Most of what I sell is gently used so please read the complete description on the listing. I strive to always over-describe condition and any flaws I see.

However diligent I try to be, I am human and sometimes may miss a condition issue or misquote a provenance. In those cases, if you are unhappy with your purchase please let me know so I can attempt to make it right. I want you to be happy with your purchase.

If you’re looking for a specific pattern of silver, china, dinnerware or collectible, let me know! I’ll be on the look out for you and if I find it I’ll email you to see if you are interested.

Feel free to ask as many questions as you want. And I always welcome your stories of your purchase – and any special meaning it may have. Eventually I will post some of these on my site so others can share in the fun of rediscovering a bit of the past.

Best wishes to you and I hope you check back often to see my new finds!!

Thanks for looking
