You can never find enough beauty. You take your beauty where you find it, whether in the delicate curl and rich color of an orchid or the gentle drop of a spring shower. The important thing is to keep an eye ready for the moment when you come upon something unexpected and wonderful. We humans simply cannot get our fill of beautiful objects, whether natural or sprung from the endless imagination of man. At Wonderful Things on Broughton Street, however, you just may come close.
Wonderful Things is a shop full of, quite simply, wonderful things.
It is a treasure trove of beautiful antiques, reproductions and home accessories and, once you have visited the store, you will want to return again and again. Here you will find all manner of furniture and ornament, each piece carefully chosen for its aesthetic value. Perhaps you fancy the china cabinet with an oval mirror and glass front or a luxurious, carved Victorian chair or an 1850 mahogany etagere with burgundy shelves. You will admire the teak chairs which look like those used on the verandahs of Caribbean manors and you won't be able to walk past the French Carpathian drink cabinet without pausing to admire the burl finish and delicate carving. Wonderful Things also offers opulent French dressers with magnificent drawer pulls, ideal for storing the fine antique linens you will find throughout the shop, as well as the damask and cotton tablecloths.
