Liz’s old booth at Memorial Antiques and Interiors (MAI)
I had a very pleasant surprise one evening when checking my
email, a nice woman named Liz had emailed me to let me know a couple of my
pictures on my previous post on white confit pots were from her shop. Imagine
my surprise and joy to learn it was none other then Liz Spradling of Liz
Spradling Antiques.
Liz Spradling recently on One King’s Lane
I wish I had known about this sale because I would have been
first in line on my computer!
Marburger Farm Antique Show at Round Top
I’ve had this picture above on my computer for a couple of
years now but had no idea where it came from or where to find these stunning
antiques. I love the 18th century statue and the incredible hand painted
leather screen behind it.
Liz Spadling on 1st Dibs
While the guy above seems to be sold Liz has his torchbearer
mate listed on 1st Dibs. It’s amazing how much detail you can see in
the craving of his dalmatic vestment.
Once you’ve seen the choice of antiques that Liz displays
you’ll become as hooked as I am. Liz has been one of my go to places on 1st
Dibs for the last few years and recently while scrolling through her selection
I came upon these champagne crates with newly tufted burlap tops. Not only
would they provide great storage inside but also they’re study enough to be
used for seating and they’re so reasonably priced!
Liz has these white confit pots listed on 1st Dibs
for those of you looking for one. She also told me she has a new shipment in
that has several confit pots and will be unpacked in September.

Joni of Cote de Texas blogspot took the next several photos
in Liz’s shop and I have to say I for one can’t wait to visit Houston. Look
over there on the left hand side Liz has a pair of hard to find small olive
jars or Jarre de Biot that you’ll find in so many of Pamela Pierce’s rooms.

I had to get in this last picture of Joni’s since it has a
white confit pot pictured. I love everything Liz has in her shop and if you do
too don’t hesitate to either visit her shop, website or on 1st Dibs.
Trust me she is such a gracious lady and even invited me to view her new
shipment but unfortunately I live a bit away.

Debra, what wonderful antiques! I will be in Houston this fall!
I don't think it would be safe for me to go into this shop. I may spend every dime I have.
So much gorgeousness here. I love every piece, and the mirror is spectacular.
Hope that all is well with you, Deborah.

Debra,
What a beautiful connection that you made through your beautiful blog! Liz's store has my mouth hanging to the ground. I am in awe of all of the amazing items for sale.
Sadly, I live to far away to check out her beautiful store.
I hope you have a wonderful week! Are you staying cool? And able to harvest any of your veggies? Made any jelly? Jam or canned anything?
I cannot wait for Fall, I have said it before but will say it again!
Take care, Elizabeth
Debra I adore Everything Liz has in her shop, wow! The statuary, the comfit pots, that most unique trumeau mirror over the console!

She has such great taste, love that first picture. What beautiful finds.
What lovely items! I'm off to check out her 1st Dibs shop for sure!
Love what John wrote....He is right, hide the credit card! Love everything you posted!
such beautiful antiques!!
So glad I was able to get back on line tonight and see this! Gorgeous antiques and so glad to know about it now! Will definitely be checking it out! White confit pots are truly my weakness so I may be in trouble here! Hope you are doing well! Thanks again for sharing this wonderful post!
I had to come back to this post since it took me so long to pick out the details in each gorgeous photo. My goodness, what amazing taste and connections to find such amazing pieces! Incredible. All of the best goes to the States--I know I have said it before but this is proof!
Have been thinking of you and Dylan. We just have had two days break in the heat but Ben has been hating it. Definitely not a time to be a city dog without shady trees to lay under or creeks to swim in!

Wow, looks like a great store. You seem to have such wonderful antiques in Texas. We don't get anything like this in Alberta Canada. I love the white confit pots.
Can I be a stowaway, Debra. Would love this beautiful shop, but know I would be in big trouble here! Love the demi-lune commode!!
ohhhhhhhhhh what dreamy stuff!!!
m ^..^
What amazing items! I've already bookmarked her site :)

Hi, Debra -
Many extraordinary pieces! What an eye. If I am ever in Texas, I will definitely visit this shop. I love that tall trumeau mirror with the carved dog.....divine!
Cheers,
Loi
Those pieces are just lovely. It's always so nice to hear about a great shop!

Debra! Doesn't surprise me she would email... your blog is wonderful and what a compliment to Liz you would highlight her pots!! This was a fabulous post! I'm always on the lookout for more amazing antique stores! Thanks my dear!

These pieces are really a treat for the eyes! I adore the sculptures! Great feature Debra! Happy weekend to you an hopefully it will be cooler. It's been hot here too. XX
Her things look amazing. I think Houston must have the best antique and decor shops in the U.S, the only problem is they are in Houston darn it!
1st Dibs has been good to you Debra! Lots and lots of beauty...I am going to go and check it out!
