We are a dedicated team committed to the search for treasure come rain, shine or snow.

If you guessed we are both a little eccentric - you guessed correctly.

We are both fueled by a desire to seek out a special piece, that was left behind by a previous owner, who clearly treasured and loved the piece, because its still in relatively great condition and thats where we come in, we don't leave the piece sitting on some forgotten dusty shelf at a vintage fair, we take it home with us, research it and find the perfect new owner to pass on to the next generation, that only adds to its journey over the years, we in turn become part of its story and eventually part of its history. 

Treasured memories 

We are David and Marie Collins and we like to hunt down treasured memories. 

We set off from our home in Port Talbot, South Wales with our Labrador,  Dylan on a journey of discovery.

We're searching for memories. As people we have a habit of holding onto something that reminds us of a precious person we have lost, or a generation gone by,  to us its real treasure, it might not be valuable in a money sense, but to us its priceless.

Research 

We like to find out as much as we can about the story of a piece that has peaked our interest.

We find it, we clean it up a little, we research it, we cherish it until it finds a new home, where it can continue to add to the historical pieces story for generations to come.
