About
Twenty years of getting up early.
How the booth got here
It started with a walnut dresser bought for eleven dollars at a farm sale in Pulaski County, hauled home in a borrowed truck, and cleaned up over a winter. It sold for enough to buy two more. That was 2006.
Since then it has been estate sales, barn cleanouts, downsizings and the occasional auction — mostly within an hour of Somerset. Booth 14 opened in 2014 and has been the whole business since.
What we look for
- Things that were built to last and mostly have. Solid wood, real joints, honest hardware.
- Original surfaces wherever they survive. A refinished piece is worth less and we say so.
- Kentucky and Appalachian pieces when we can find them, because they belong here.
- Useful things. A crock you can still put something in beats one you cannot.
What we tell you
Every condition note on the stock list is written after handling the piece. If something has a repair, a replaced part, a crack or a smell, it says so. A surprise found at home is a customer who does not come back, and in a town this size that is the whole business.
If a piece is not what you expected when you get it home, bring it back within seven days and we will refund it. That has happened four times in eleven years.
