Antiques Buying Trip: Homecoming
Here at EuroLuxHome.com, we look forward to antiques buying trips with great anticipation - what amazing things will we find? This trip we had to upgrade to a larger container because we found so many beautiful pieces of antique furniture and 100+ unique vintage chandeliers. However, by the end of the trip, we are always equally excited to go home...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 11: Chateau Tour
On our last day of the Antiques Buying Trip, Greg and I had finished everything we needed to do, so we headed to southern Belgium to visit the Chateau de Lavaux-Sainte-Anne. The lovely chateau dates to 1450 and has several rooms decorated in period furnishings from the 17th century. Although it's somewhat of a "busman's holiday", we enjoy visiting historical...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 10: WWII Nazi Camp
Greg and I are history buffs, so we always look forward to doing a little sightseeing at the end of our Antiques Buying Trips in Europe. We are especially interested in World War II historical sites, as both of our grandfathers landed on the beaches in Normandy. Although we've visited quite a few WWII Nazi concentration camps, the Nazi work...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 9: Brewery Tour!
Many folks are curious about where we stay when we travel to Europe. For this Antiques Buying trip, we decided to try out a 15th century brewery that has a hotel attached, called Hotel Carolus. Back in 1471, a group of women lived together and did good works (known as Beguines - similar to nuns but not exactly), including taking...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 8: Gas Up
After a week driving across Europe visiting antique markets and wholesale dealers, we've finished buying a wonderful selection of antique furniture, chairs, and vintage chandeliers. We'll still visit another indoor market to focus on smaller decorative items, such as Blue Delft ceramics, vintage chalkware and enamelware, and antique religious treasures. However, as we no longer need the large van to...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 7: Meet Mishka!
After a week in Europe, Greg and I met Mishka, a very friendly and helpful French bulldog. We love animals - in fact all five of our fuzzy children were rescued, so we always enjoy making new fuzzy friends. As you know, we spend a good deal of time loading the van during our Antiques Buying trips, so it was...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 5: Snow Blizzard
We weren't expecting snow in March, but we ended up driving through a snow blizzard in the French countryside on the fifth day of the Antiques Buying trip. After taking care of business for EuroLuxHome.com in the hotel room in the morning, we headed out with a few flakes coming down. By later in the afternoon, a good five inches...

Antiques Buying Trip Day 4: Counting Cubes
After a few days on the road buying antiques in Europe, Aimee and Greg at EuroLux Antiques count how many cubes of antique furniture and vintage chandeliers they've purchased. If we decide to bring in a 45 foot container, we still have quite a bit of space left to fill. Guess we'll have to keep buying! Aimee shows off a...

Antiques Buying Trip: Shipping Containers
"How do you ship your antique furniture from Europe?" is a question we are often asked at EuroLux Antiques. All of the wonderful antiques and vintage lighting that we find on an antiques buying trip are loaded in either a 40 or 45 foot container and shipped from Europe to the Port of Charleston in South Carolina. From there the...
