Items of Value Inc

     This sale is in a 4-bedroom colonial-style red brick house with a wonderful large sun room and deck on the back overlooking a landscaped yard.  What is special for everyone is the collection of oil lamps, including many small fairly rare ones, and the books, that cover many subject areas.  You will find some special furniture items as well.  What is special for you ladies is a large amount of fine women's clothes and fine costume jewelry.  What is special for you men are the tools and lawn equipment.

     Look through our photos of items in this sale.  Even before arriving at the front door, you will see a variety of outdoor items for sale.  As soon as you enter, you will see a large living room displaying antique Victorian tables, very clean off-white brocade sofa,  and a variety of tables.  We have added showcases here to display much of the costume jewelry and other small collectibles.  Some of these we have moved from the dining room because the dining room was crammed with furniture, china, glassware.  Consider changing from your usual clear glassware to colored glass, at least as accent pieces.  In the dining room you will find one special furniture item, being a chest of drawers with top drawboard.  This is a very nice piece.

     The table in the kitchen may be just what you are looking for.  It sits near an antique work table in one corner.  Proceeding out to the sun room, you will find yourself in a wonderful room with wicker and other furniture.  From inside you can see more patio furniture on the deck.  There are cement benches, statues, large cooking grill, and patio furniture down below.

     The furniture in the master bedroom is fine quality.  It includes a FINE double-size 4-poster bed and FINE long dresser with mirror. The smaller bedrooms have vintage bedroom sets that just might appeal to you to recover that old warm look of vintage furniture.  We have brought in folding bookshelves to display many of the books that were formerly in bookcases.  Note the quilts and bed covers for sale.

     The basement will be a surprise because of its large furnished room. You might take home part or all of the white leatherette/vinyl seating.  The most important item in this room is the standing screen ofhinged panels of beveled glazed panes -- a rarity that may suit you well at home, or in a restaurant.  Look for the nice pair of brass candlestick lamps.

     The 2-car garage is filled with hand tools, red metal tool cabinets, yard equipment, hand tools, bicycles.  Take your time to look for items here that you really can use at home.

     Please bring canvas satchels and empty boxes with you as we have none to offer.  Come for another good time at an Items of Value sale.   Also, read our future email announcements or watch for us on "estatesales.net" because we will shortly be announcing a SUPERB sale in the Belle Haven area of Alexandria that will be spread over 4 weeks -- a sale by appointment only of VERY FINE artwork and collectibles.
