ABOUT MAHOGANY RIDGE

We find ourselves drawn to Antiques for the feeling they evoke.  Memories and tales of a time gone by that was more simple, a time when families dined with formality, a time when objects were made to last more than a lifetime, an era when time itself was not the precious commodity it is today.

Mahogany Ridge recognizes this by offering a diverse array of Pennsylvania estate items from a variety of eras.  The result is an eclectic yet complimentary mix of Victorian, Edwardian, primitives and Eames era items. Our expertise lies in antique linens and porcelains, however, we feel if we limited ourselves to singular or specialist categories, we would in effect, be denying the worth of all the beautiful items we have the opportunity to offer.

Antiques offer comfort in your place of solace, and are a wise investment. Graniteware pieces were sold for pennies years twenty ago. Gasps of shock could be heard in the auction crowd if an item sold for five dollars. Today, the same pieces are worth hundreds of dollars.

The majority of the antiques we offer are purchased from local Pennsylvania estates, and vary in fashion from affluent mansions to local farms.  We grew up here, we are buying the items from old Pennsylvania farms established as far back as the 1700’s, and all the items are genuine. We found it sad to see the local elders auctioning off the contents of their farms and homes. It was an easy decision to turn this event into a positive one by bringing these coveted treasures to the world for everyone to enjoy.

Over a thousand of satisfied customers will attest to our fast shipments and professional packaging. All sales are treated with the utmost confidentiality,as we understand the importance of privacy. We do not disclose the names of our customers, sell the names of our customers,or use them as advertising vehicles.

Mahogany Ridge operates on three basic principles, providing the cornerstone to our successful business.

• Conduct business with honesty and integrity
• Offer items at fair market value
• Provide above average customer service.

Our tried and true business practices will ensure we are here for many years to come.
