the fabulous find
having moved out of the main street area last year, i just missed the fabulous find moving in so on my drive back from visiting cul de sac design i was heading up main, when some blue eames fibreglass chairs beckoned me to stop. with a few nice surprises along the way, "the fabulous find" features mid-century furniture and home accessories. much to my dismay 4 blue eames chairs with sold tags on them had just been bought up by a couple from holland and although there were some nice orange ones in the window at $150 each, i really had my heart set on the blue. but there's lots to choose from in this lovely corner store, heaps of vintage typewriters, pendant lamps and tabletops, danish teak couches and chairs and i even spotted a tulip table with chairs hiding in the back. they don't have a website but can be contacted through their email at tgfinefurniture@hotmail.com. (i've set up a little set/slideshow of more inside the store. you can view it by clicking here. at the end, i picked up that white chair - top photo left)

I really like this store. They only have a small amount of space so they only stock REALLY AWESOME things. No junk. I always want EVERYTHING that I see!
Wow, that looks like an incredible shop! Lucky I'm nowhere near, or I'd practically haunt it!
gosh, what a dream shop. I could stay there for hours!
The shop/store is like a paradise of a shopkeeper, a consumer and even a designer who's responsible.
This store looks fantastic, could I get the address again? There is a photo over it on my computer!
Thank you very much!
Ahh so jealous that store is by you. I am looking for that Eames shell chair and am having no luck.
thanks everyone for your comments!
dear pony - here's the address. (just for interest sake, what type of browser are you using? and what is your display size? i want to make sure everyone can read everything. thanks!

wow! this place looks fantastic! wish i loved close by:)
Yes, I think that is one of my favourite vintage shops. Last time I was in (ages ago) they had a bubble chair. And a couch that I truly wanted to make mine.
Wow, I can't believe my luck! I have been searching for over a year for this store. It must have been the owner that came into this antique shop I work at in Williams Lake. I tried to remember the name of the store that was printed on the side of the Van. Well now I know it's location and finally I can go check it out. I can't wait!!!
