About us

We are a family owned, brick and mortar store located on the Alaska Highway within the great city of Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. What started out as a 90-degree, unchartered career turn, has become a labour of love procuring vintage, imported and antique items for the home and the stead. We also offer European linen bedding, furniture restoration supplies including a great little hardware collection, beekeeping supplies, cigars, and a sweet selection of salt taffy. Did you know good kids get one salt taffy per visit?

There's a nostalgic atmosphere inside where you can find ones-of-a-kind made locally and globally. Something for everyone. 

We are all about enhancing your stead, space, spot, what's around you...your psychological habitat whether that's the condo balcony or the farm porch.
