I discovered I had a passion for antiques by unearthing treasures at garages sales with my father and attending auctions while still a teenager.   After a few years of collecting, my home was bursting at the seams and I knew if I wanted to continue to buy I needed to have an outlet to sell.   I peddled my "finds" at flea markets and antique shows, eventually opening my home for seasonal "open houses". 

In 1987 when my youngest son was almost two years old, I opened Gallery Classic on a wing and a prayer.   My husband and I have six children, three cats and a mischievous dog named Bentley.   You'll see reminders of my love for flora and fauna, animals and nature at every turn inside Gallery Classic.
