We spent last Saturday afternoon with a friend digging through the Chicago Antique Market stalls. For your perusal, ten fun finds, starting with this Vintage TWA Travel Poster. Nine more below the jump (including the one we REALLY wanted to buy)...
Top Ten: Chicago Antique Market Finds
Antique Wall Mirror
Vera Peach Napkins
Salad Set
Hot Pink Suzani
Mid-C Coffee Table
Neo-Classical Lamp with Gold and Black shade
Japanese-Inspired Wooden Folding screen
Faux Fireplace
...and (drumroll...)
The Chinese Rug
We loved this one - the colors were beautiful in person. Maybe next time...
The final Chicago Antique Market of 2007 is next month - the weekend of October 27 & 28.

We thought the mirror was a good find too -- in fact we bought it on Saturday afternoon, along with its more rectangular cousin. We are trying to give our master bedroom an art nouveau and art deco style to match the really cool, really bold, really hard to figure out what goes with it bed but fits our budget and lifestyle/practical needs:

Any suggestions, let us know! Anyway, we thought the curves on the mirror were simple enough and nouveau enough to go with the bed. We'll probably paint the frames. Again, any suggestions, let us know.
Oh, and we're so jazzed that we bought something featured on this site. Our self-esteem has soared to new heights!
