About Bread & Butter Antiques

About Us
Looking back now, it hardly seems possible that the two of us have been immersed in the antique world since the early 1980's. Tim has been restoring antiques since we began, and when I am not running the antique shop or getting things ready to go on Ruby Lane, I also help out. Our shop began as a labor of love, and it still is to this day. Many hours have been spent restoring the old building that now serves as our brick and mortar antique shop. Our building was originally built in the late 1800's and was always a hardware store from the time it was first opened. On sunny days, the shop is full of light and warmth from the large front windows that we use for display. The hard rock maple floors are the same ones that were installed from the get-go, and they do their part to add to the warmth.

About our furniture: Some of our furniture items have been professionally restored in our own workshops. After all these years, I consider my husbandTim to be an expert when it comes to restoring a piece to the way it looked when it was made. Whenever we can, we always leave original finishes undisturbed. As you may realize, antique furniture can be expected to show signs of normal wear after many years of use. We try to give a detailed description with lots of pictures to help you in your decision. If you would like to talk with one of us about a particular piece, please feel free to call us.Our customer's comments are always complimentary, and we sincerely appreciate those comments.

Our antique shop and restoration workshop are both located in Northwestern Ohio, about 40 miles south of Toledo, about 15 minutes from the city of Findlay. There are lots of excellent restaurants and places to stay in Findlay. Our business hours are Saturday 10 -4 and Sunday 12 -4. We have actually met quite a few of our Ruby Lane customers in person when they have come to pick up furniture. If you are in the area, please stop by. We have much more inventory in our shop and there are other shops nearby.

Here are just a few of the kind things that our wonderful buyers have said about us & Ruby Lane.

Received safe & sound today! I love them! If you ever find any
more pieces in this pattern please let me know...or if you find
any of the bakelite pieces in turquoise, I'd also be interested.

Your packaging was great...but now the world is out of bubble
wrap!! lol
Thanks so much, Laura

I thought you might like to see how well your bookcase matches my library table. Pictures attached. It was a pleasure to meet you and to see your store.


Many Thanks Tim & Emily:

Lovely Pin as Described and arrived well today!

Best Wishes! Victoria

Keith delivered the bookcase this morning and it looks great. It’s even better in real life than on the website. It’s a piece that I hope to have for many years to come.
Thank you.
Tom
P.S. Keith is a great guy and he and his helper moved it in and set it up for me.

Good Morning Emily,

Our chairs arrived safely with Keith yesterday and they are just exactly what I hoped! They look perfect in our kitchen.

Thanks and looking forward to more 'shopping' with you!

Hi Emily,
Keith and his partner delivered the island on Saturday. It is a great piece and we are very happy with it. Keith got it into the house no problem and he was a very pleasant person to deal with.

I'll send you some photos when the kitchen is finished.

Thanks so much,
Janet

Hi: I just wanted to let you know that I rec'd the earrings today
and I'm very happy with them. This is my first purchase on
