You never know when you might stumble upon a great vintage find. Walking down Fifth Avenue I looked up to admire one of the most photographed buildings in New York and I couldn’t help notice this amazing vintage clock. Built circa 1909, this clock has definitely withstood the test of time. The ornate details are reminiscent of a time gone by when skilled craftsman were not such a rarity.

And don’t be fooled by these photos, this vintage clock towers over the sidewalks of New York at a height of about 15 feet. By the way, does any one know what time it is?

Vintage Swedish Clocks

Hickory, Dickory, Dock. The mouse would have a long way to run up these clocks! Standing well over 6 feet tall, these curvy case clocks originated in Sweden and were made of all wood and usually painted in creams, whites, blues and grays. Thanks goes to King Gustav III, 1771-1792, for these beautiful french inspired Swedish clocks. They are true classic Swedish design. So enough of the history lesson, enjoy the photos!

Can you guess where? It’s not only furniture stores that are displaying vintage artifacts. There is a growing obsession with nostalgia and things from the past. Surprisingly, this trend is even more popular with the twenty-something crowd who is fascinated with vintage and in many cases, seeing them for the very first time.

This very hip and well known young women and mens clothing store doesn’t display clothing in their Fifth Avenue window, instead it’s vintage home furnishings. Inside, the whole store is vintage with antique typewriters, clocks, juggling pins, wood crates, you name it. Find out what store has gone vintage at the end of this post
