Auctioneer: Next up is lot 454, a shabby chic french desk. And we’ll open the bidding at twenty dollars. Iheartwentydollars. DoIheartwentyfive, twentyfive? Going once…sold!
Tired of your regular Saturday morning routine? Coffee. Papers. Exercise. Brunch. Maybe it’s time to venture a little farther afield.
You’ll feel like a kid in a candy store at Mitchell Road Auctions. The warehouse is packed to the brim with pre-loved treasures from vintage suitcases to dining chairs, sofas, desks, wine barrels, mirrors, dressing tables, bicycles, kitchenalia, art…and you can pick up these items for a steal at the auctions all day Saturday.
Stock is replenished every week, meaning that each Saturday brings a new adventure with new (or is that old?) stock to trawl through.
Still searching for the perfect 1970’s orange blown-glass vase? Head upstairs to the permanent vintage and retro inspired mini-boutiques. Think vinyl bar-stools, fur coats, antique tea sets, re-furbished theatre lights, jewellery and retro ceramics.
Saturday mornings will never be the same again.
