About Us and Our Business
, by Ian Lawler, 1 min reading time
As of 6-2025 we are still a 3 person team. Our margins are too small to allow for retail establishments and employees unfortunately. Ian Lawler, Thanh, and Jayden (2.5 years old). Jayden is basically in charge, facilitating the balance between park time and the weeks worth of work that needs to be accomplished every day. I, Ian Lawler have been trading in antiques and collectibles since the age of 10. I just started re-establishing my online presence in 2015. In that time have about 10,000 happy customers, all for rare one of a kind items. We currently are purchasing and helping to liquidate estates in Central Texas, but can travel anywhere for the right items.
I moved to Pennsylvania when I was 18 years old to begin this business full time, relocated to Tennessee when I was 21. For about 6 years I went to live auctions averaging 7 or more a week. I've sold in every outlet imaginable. I am knowledgeable in every legitimate collectible, all decorative arts, and antiques/antiquities. This allows us to pay more and sell for less. We deal mostly in gallery type items but not at gallery prices. A large percentage of our business is wholesale.
We are currently mostly dealing in gold and silver with a focus on Native American/Southwestern jewelry as we had to make room for Jayden. We don't have the time and space to currently deal with larger items. Without a doubt we are paying a higher premium than anyone in central Texas for Native American jewelry, and most gold jewelry, silver flatware and hollow-ware, etc.
We currently sell on most of the large online platforms, but our biggest inventory and our best prices will be found on our website. I'm extremely grateful for you taking the time to look at our items and considering bringing them into your lives.
