Bradford House Antiques LLC:
is
our parent company. Originally, we had two
stores side by side. Bradford House Antiques
was our antique silver and objects d’art shop.
Lawrence Jeffrey was the jewel box. In 2006, we
were able to break through the walls and combine
the two locations. The Bradford House name
honors Bill and Harriet Kaschube, Sandra’s
parents and Jeff’s good friends. The family home
was in Bradford, Pennsylvania, hence our name. |

Sandra's aesthetic sensibility informs and
guides us as she collaborates in the acquisition
process. Her ability to balance personal styles,
promotes cohesiveness in client collections,
while encouraging passionate collecting. She and
Jeff started Bradford House Antiques in 1989. |

silver, glass and porcelain, he keeps our
collection of Antique and Period decorative
accessories one of the most interesting and
