Their “seconds” outlet is at 61 Galli, Novato California
Open only Fri-Sat 10-2
Their graphite might hold me off painting my bedroom several
shades of dark gray. As an aside… I’ve always identified
strongly with The Princess and the Pea …
Originally dark green and gold…
love having lots of old paint lying around…
Antique metal grape harvest basket with leather straps…paid $40
It’s always all in the timing…I’ve seen them for over $250
Overloaded with last year’s Provence lavender…
This is my favorite antique French letter…
framed in simple gold in a group of nine…
C. 1828
Letters came from Couram71 on Ebay
(who ships from Switzerland)
La Parisienne antique Junelle-Eclair
They fold up in various positions to be antique binoculars,
theater glasses, compass, magnifying lenses, etc…
Fichu or Pelerine purported to be c. 1820
Flower on hook is pale pink silk peony from my wedding dress…
which drove me into the madness of planting 30 plants
in a Northern California garden…
which worked…
Wisteria’s draftsman stool
worth it and sometimes on sale…

Hi,
I was wondering what the outlet was like? Did they have a pretty large selection? Is it pretty easy to find? Thanks for the information. I love their fabrics.
