We bought a piece we saw from outside, but I will say the owner is not very family friendly… we were kindly asked to leave at our last visit with our daughter. Aside from the metal work he does, things inside are a mixed bag and overpriced (to me at least)!

It just wasn't for me but I'm sure for other antique collectors of furniture and bigger items this is the place

Besides being a supreme craftsman, Ray is a purveyor of marvelous oddities like the recycled-aluminum creatures--flamingoes, penguins, pigs, roosters--that I've collected over the years. These all-weather friends "hide" in plain sight, peeking out from behind trees & shrubs, delighting toddlers, amusing passersby. Yesterday as I turned onto Ridge in Wilmette, a green dinosaur in front of Ray's shop flagged me down & asked where I've been! He & his brilliant friends, peacock & owl, made me laugh--& for a moment I forgot about Covid 19, my husband's stroke, the war in Ukraine, global warming. Who could resist that? And so our menagerie grows--in size & popularity. Thanks to Ray

Excellent shop! Menu ranges from knick-knacks to heavy duty furniture from as far back as the 1700s.

Great antique shop. The owner Ray also specializes in restoration of furniture and is definitely a wood craftsman. He has strong skillful hands that gets the job done right every time.

They don't make them like Ray anymore. He is a master craftsman and would recommend him to anyone.

I brought a Haywood-Wakefield side table in to be refinished. The work was done quickly and the table looks brand new, all at a reasonable price.

Called 3 times to ask questions, never received a response. Very Rude.

It's a small shop in a small "antiquey" area in Wilmette with an unexpected large and varied selection of all kinds of furniture. And the owner builds and repairs old furniture too. Great find!
