Dear Diva Readers,

Afterwards we took an afternoon tour of the center featuring some of our favorite vendors. I had to share these sources with you to give out my own Antiques Diva awards to a few of my favorite vendors.
A few of my favorite antique dealers at the Antiques and Design Center of High Point include the following:
1- Caroline Faison Antiques – Best Buy at the Market is Saint Michael
2- MadCap Cottage – Hippest Inventory- Making Antiques Modern and Relevant for the Way We Live Today
3- Whitehall Antiques – Best Quality Pieces at the Market
4- Del Ray Antiques – Best Variety- Sells 90% to the Trade
5- Dolce – Best Investment Pieces- West German Pottery- The Antique of the Future
6- Regency Antiques with Eddie Corcino – 18th C Grand Tour Screen
7- Peridot Antiques – Chicest Inventory at the Market

Hi Toma,
Thanks so much for including me in your totally awesome post! (and presentation and tour!)… I’m still on cloud 9! I’m in such great company at the Antique and Design Center! It was great meeting you and I’m looking forward to traveling (virtually) with you as you source amazing finds all over the globe! XO Heather
Toma- I must admit that I just couldn’t live without those amazing froggy salt cellars from Michael Weaver- They live at the Luisana Home now- , proudly carrying black Hawaiian salt and lavender salt!
Loved having you with us at the show!!! Great energy, my lady! Please stay in touch….Je t’adore!- Karen Lu
