Mozo's Antique Search and Rescue

 
My friends Moe Munroe and Lisa Brady just opened a hip new antiques store (no, that's not an oxymoron!) called Mozo's Antique Search and Rescue in my neighborhood.
 
 
This place is not your grandmother's antiques store, as their business cards clearly indicate.  'If you enjoy shows like... American Pickers, Oddities... Pawn Stars, this is the store for you!', the cards accurately exclaim!
 
 
Here is Lisa in front of the store's original safe, and behind the uber cool antique cash register.
 
 
On offer are fabulous old typewriters,
 
 
painted screens and equestrian fare,
 
 
religious icons,
 
 
decorative mirrors,
 
 
an old doctor's bag,
 
 
kitchy Lucy and Ricky statues,
 
 
 
ship models and nautical knick knacks,
 
 
some French accessories (mais oui!),
 
 
jewels(!),
 
 
marble grapes,
 
 
compasses, doorknobs, seltzer bottles,
 
 
creepy anatomy charts,
 
 
mannequins wearing Moe's cashmere gloves,
 
 
or pink wigs and vintage hats,
 
 
an original mosaic sculpture of Moe's,
 
 
pop art,
 
 
and much, much more!  This back room currently serves as a warehouse, but will soon be staged for shopping and Lisa's interior design business.
 
 
The light in here is magical!
 
 
Happily, Mozo's will soon be carrying some of my jewelry designs, so I'm excited to bring them some of my edgier pieces!
 
I will also be listing new items in both of my Etsy shoppes tomorrow, so please stop by The French Circus for my hand assembled jewelry, and The Paris Carousel for your vintage jewelry and supplies needs.  I think there's a little 'search and rescue' in us all!  ;)
