Barry sent us a tip to check out his favorite vintage source...he says that "Quiet, sleepy, little Carol Stream Illinois (a suburb of Chicago) is home to an amazing vintage, mid-century modern, retro and gently used furniture market so secret, that, well, I finally decided to put my greed aside to help them get the word out...."
Reader Tip: Jubilee Furniture Company
"For months now on Saturdays only, Jubilee Furniture Company has opened it's doors at 9 am – the exact time I show up. For months I've had practically unfettered access to all this incredible and ever changing furniture and collectibles. A smorgasbord of vintage and retro items that sell for at or below garage sale prices.
I kid you not, I've found Vitra, Steelcase, Herman Miller, Weiland, Knoll, Kimball, d_SCAN, Haworth, AllSteel and a ton of older American and Danish lines there. I blogged about my Steelcase Warren Snodgrass 474419W Encore Series guest chairs that are in the Museum of Modern art a few weeks ago.
Each Saturday a new selection awaits at Jubilee."
We just heard that Sarah and Nicole are going to check out Jubilee this weekend for the first time...look for a full store post from Sarah with the low-down on AT: Chicago soon...and Happy Hunting, vintage shoppers!
Read Barry's full post (and check out his Jubilee slideshow) here.
Jubilee Furniture is located at 610 E. North Ave. in Carol Stream, 630.337.1467.
Thanks for the tip, Barry!
