Antiques and Treasure Hunts

Antiques and Treasure Hunts

Searching for antiques is like being on a treasure hunt, uncovering hidden gems from the past that hold stories and memories waiting to be discovered. Each trip my mother and I have taken together as we search for beautiful items for your home, has yielded some sort of adventure/experience. 

We had the opportunity to visit a farm in the Karoo, South Africa, where we embarked on a remarkable journey back in time. The experience was like stepping into a completely untouched world from yesteryear, with cobwebs hanging low and the air undisturbed.


Together we search through dusty sheds and spooky attics, traveling the lesser-known gravel roads, and discovering many long-forgotten items that were once treasured. The thrill of finding unique pieces with a story to tell is truly special, and it brings a sense of history and beauty into our lives.

Bringing these forgotten items back to Spargs Furnishers and seeing them loved again, feels like playing a small part in bringing a piece of history back to life. It was a meaningful way to preserve history and appreciate the craftsmanship of the past.

Exploring untouched spaces and uncovering hidden treasures is an incredible adventure that will forever be etched in my memory. The search for antiques continues to be a rewarding experience, filled with joy and excitement at every turn.

As we cherish the timeless treasures we find, we also honor the stories they hold and the craftsmanship they represent. The journey through antiquing is not just about collecting old items but about connecting with the past and preserving its beauty for generations to come.

So, let's continue to embrace the magic of uncovering history and bringing forgotten treasures back to life. Together, we can create a world where the past meets the present in perfect harmony.
