I have done a fair amount of antiquing in my day…getting up at 4:30 a.m. to scour through markets looking for the gems. These folks, are indeed gems. Love these vintage industrial pieces from Installations in Houston.

I live in Houston, so I can vouch for how wonderful Installations is.

Ooh, very cool! Thanks so much for sharing. I really like that bucket.
Have you also seen Get Back, Inc.? Even more vintage industrial awesomeness…
