Heritage Antiques

I mentioned before how incredible Heritage Antiques is in Lexington, KY.  Let me first tell you a little history...
Heritage has been a Lexington staple for many many years.  It first started out with the owner's father running the store and was passed down to the current owner.   The building is an old horse livery but that piece of history had been lost for some time.  As the current owner, Zeff Maloney, tore down parts of the ceiling in this historic building, he exposed brick with stall numbers running down the length of the store.  After investigating further, it turned out that the whole length of the store has wondering skylighting and a bricked over entrance that used to be where the carriages would enter the building.
The store has every type of style, from english to french, dutch, modern ect..
Here are a couple things from the store...












The picture above has Amber, the manager of the store.  She is standing in front of one of my favorite pieces! The whole piece is inlaid and just drop dead gorgeous!

Oh and here is a piece I purchased there a couple years ago....

Look at that cute little puggle! ;)
Come visit the store to find pieces that you will never find anywhere else!  Each piece has its own history and believe me... this type of furniture never goes out of style!
