Nestled in the Stapleton Heights Historic District
on the fair isle of Staten -- just a short ferry ride away -- our vintage studio awaits you. A visit will not only open the door to our secret vintage treasure box, but it will finally get you out to the forgotten borough to see a part of NYC I’m sure will surprise and delight you. Visits are by-appointment only.
We will be updating this space very shortly letting you know how and when you can arrange your visit.
We can’t wait to welcome you into our private space for an intimate & truly one-of-a-kind shopping experience.
Plan your visit
Consider turning your studio outing into a full afternoon adventure by pairing it with a visit to a nearby museum, a memorable meal, or a leisurely stroll through our historic neighborhood, where elegant 19th- and early 20th-century homes will transport you to another time & place.
