Art Antiques Michigan
I have been an avid collector of country, primitive antiques for about 50 years. During those years I have collected, sold, collected, sold---you know how that goes. I was a single owner antique shop for many years. With the onset of the internet my selling venue has changed. I now have a website https://artantiquesmichigan.com/. Some of you may know me from there. I hope to bring to my Dig site the same quality country, primitive antiques as I offer on my website, at reasonable prices. I will update my Dig site every month between the 15th. and 17th. of each month. You will find fresh to market items at that time. My preferred method of payment is by check. Made payable to Joanne Getz. I offer a lay a way plan to help you with your purchases. Michigan residents add 6% Sales Tax. I do hope you will stop by often. I can be reached nearly anytime at joannemargetz@gmail.com or call me 9894281009.

A wonderful, early 19th. century goose necked coffee pot. The surface of the coffee pot is punched tin, decorated with Tulips and the base has a punched tin wiggle work chain decoration. I don’t see any holes or real damage to the pot other than what would be considered normal wear and tear. The pot appears to have an old black surface that I believe is a very dry, thin paint. Oxidation has caused minor spotting over the surface. Original top knob, good seams. The coffee pot measures 10 1/2 inches tall and 10 1/2 inches spout to handle.
