Your Trusted Source for Antique Furniture & Rugs in Shamokin Dam
Established in 1971, our business has built a reputation as a trusted source for antique furniture and rugs. With over 30 years of expertise in the rug industry, we curate hand-selected pieces from private estates and collectors across the Northeast U.S., offering exceptional value compared to high-overhead metropolitan shops. Our commitment to quality is evident in our meticulous restoration process, which ensures every antique Gustav Stickley furniture piece is repaired using traditional techniques and premium materials. We specialize in Arts & Crafts and Mission-style furniture, including works from Stickley, Harden, and Roycroft, alongside a vast collection of Persian and Oriental rugs dating from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Our inventory includes rare designs like Serapi, Sarough, and Kashan rugs, as well as handcrafted furniture such as bookcases, dining chairs, and Morris chairs.While our physical shop in Central Pennsylvania operates by appointment, we provide nationwide access to our collection through detailed online listings. Our focus remains on delivering authentic, restored antiques that seamlessly integrate into modern homes without requiring additional repairs. By prioritizing invisible repairs and period-accurate craftsmanship, we preserve the historical integrity of each piece while ensuring long-term durability. Our decades of experience enable us to source and restore items that reflect the artistry of the Arts & Crafts movement and the intricate beauty of antique rugs.

Open by appointment only. Amazing selection of arts and crafts furniture. Joe has a great eye for great pieces. Check out his listings on eBay and Rubylane, but definitely worth the trip out from Pittsburgh to visit his shop!

I just purchased a wonderful Arts & Crafts bookcase from Joe. I found it on his web site. He had it delivered for me 2.5 hours away -- I never had to leave my house! Overall, a very satisfying experience, and one that I would recommend. Joe is very experienced and knowledgeable in the Arts & Crafts field. I trust his assessments. The bookcase I purchased was just as he described, and I couldn't be happier. I need to make a trip out to Shamokin Dam to visit and see his offerings in person real soon.
