In Short
A bright yellow facade welcomes neighborhood passersby to this rickety secondhand shop. Large wooden pieces like consoles and sideboards spanning from the 1900s to the 1970s occupy the large front showroom while several smaller rooms in back feature nude paintings and Mexican pottery. Decorative items include Chinese bowls, indigenous marionettes and the occasional rare find, such as a mid-century dollhouse. Stacks of old postcards and black and white photos can be found at the register.
