HADA Spring Antiques Show - PaperCity Sponsored Preview Party

Tonight HADA opened their doors for PaperCity's Preview Party from 6:30-9PM. We were the first to pursue 100+ booths of amazing antiques! New this year is the 'PaperCity Aisle of Style.'

There were a few items that caught my eye that I would absolutely love to share with you guys!

This china was absolutely gorgeous! This set did not have a name but was created by the artist J Rose. This set is breathtaking in person you'll have to see it for yourself. This set was just created for serving desserts. Perfect for the sweet tooth with a delectable sense of taste. Makes for a wonderful dessert!

The bear decanter above was a very interesting piece. This item is Swiss and was definitely the talk of the DH booth. It is a fun piece and can be placed on a buffet or bar. Defintely one of a kind.

Visitors read vintage books / Photo Credit: Haili Pue

"The PaperCity book boutique, Curate, returns this season, brimming with the must-have and latest releases from the worlds of design, antiques, interiors and art, plus coveted vintage volumes by design meisters Billy Baldwin, David Hicks, C.Z. Guest and more." - PaperCity

Shoppers out for a good read or a vintage volume piece stopped by the book section to burry their noses into good reads and finds. Old volumes of Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans were amongst many of the vintage books on display. This one caught my eye as it was a childhood favorite.

A carriage fit for a queen! This carriage is gorgeous from Manor House in Knoxville, Tennessee. If you stop by the show do me a favor and take a look at this piece. It is wonderful! I didn't get to catch the story behind this one and would have loved to have heard a little bit about it.

Masterson Artworks has lovely lighting and I loved the feel of this booth. Unique and custom lighting, I loved the concept of the oversized lanterns. Just gorgeous. If you're refurbishing your home or need lighting here's where you want to be. What more could you want? Lighting and antiques all under one roof! Plus, go green and get great antiques all at your fingertips here. Let's continue with a few more booths around the corner....there's still fabulous items to come!

Now this piece has got to be one of my favorites! This is a spool cabinet circa 1890's - 1920's. Now this is rare to find a taller spool cabinet, most of them are small to place on table or cabinet tops. The owner spoke with me and told me that she had two that she was using as lamp tables beside her couch in the living room. What a great idea! This could be used as a night stand as well. This is a great piece and these are so hard to come by. This is the first I have seen like this, and I absolutely loved it. Unfortunately I did not get to purchase and it is still at the show. Fortunately for you, it is still there to see! This really is great, and I absolutely love it. Awesome that it is in great condition and comes with the labels for the spools.

This Italian couch is stunning! The finish on it is amazing, and Lora whom was working the LR Antiques section asked me to sit on the couch to try it out. To my surprise is was extremely comfortable just like she said. Try it out for yourself this weekend when you stop by!

These paintings took my breath away. I was literally mesmorized by them. These paintings are from the late 1800's & are from Mexico. They are all religious paintings done on tin. It is surprising how well they were taken care of. I just love these. If you have time stop by and take a look at these. The artwork is great and Antique Legacy can tell you a little bit more about them.
