Editorial Review for Tony's – by Constance Tillotson

The Scene
Owner Ed Sojac's motto is this: "It doesn't matter what era a piece comes from as long as I like it." The result is a mishmash of objects, everything from classic Barbies to old movie posters. His tiny store is a maze of treasures and manages to contain everything from turn-of-the-century teacups to glass grapes that adorned 1970s coffee tables.

The Goods
Unlike most thrift shops that stock torn-up Levi's, Tony's has all sorts of great finds. There's lots of old furniture that has been lovingly refinished and looks amazing, including numerous chairs from seemingly every decade of the last century. There are lamps that have been ingeniously rebuilt from discarded bits. Check out the selection of old trunks and suitcases. And if you just want to spruce up your existing space, there are plenty of inexpensive trinkets to pick through.

The store sign is hard to spot--look for a mishmash of chairs and candelabras on the sidewalk across from Bluestocking Antiques.
