About Lagniappe Antiques
My passion is finding decorative objects, art, garden antiques, and beautiful textiles with patina and a storied past that evoke a sense of wonder and add a “lagniappe” -- a small and unexpected gift—for you and your home. Antiques, vintage touches, and artisan goods make a truly memorable interior. As the late and much-admired Interior Designer Robert Kime said, “I can see myself in what I collect. And I think if you look at what you buy, it tells you who you are. That is what collecting is to me – it confirms who I am. It tells my story.”
