As someone deeply immersed in this passion, my fascination for the treasures that once belonged to a bygone era led me down a path few others tread. It was four years ago that my journey began with a simple curiosity; an exploration into the world of 'collected miscellaneous items' from the Republic Era 1912-1949.

My collection has grown over time, each piece telling a story, capturing a moment in history as vividly as any pnting could. The antique clocks, calligraphic works, and household goods are more than just objects; they are remnants of a life lived before our modern age began to unfold.

The pieces I've found, often hled by professionals as 'collectibles', come from various sources - old houses that have been reclmed for new purposes, flea markets bustling with the unique charm only they can offer.
