« Comin' Up: The Curated Corner - A Scene from Last Weekend »

Aside from ensuring that our vaunted vendors stay warm and toasty this weekend in our snazzy Dumbo Pop-Up, Senor has been tweaking the mix of vintage/antiques offerings for Week 2 so that first- and two-timers alike will be pleased.

Have you seen David Sokosh's collection of awesome Ansonia clocks? Well, you should. They're hefty, cute, and reasonably priced. The New York Times is coming to snap pics of them for the City Section this weekend, because of their century-old Brooklyn roots, but we'll let David tell you that story when you stop by. He's calling his new time-sensitive biz Clinton Hill Clocks. Tick-tock.

Folks, Phyllis the prop stylist needs to unload her wares, and she needs your help. She organizes her glass, porcelain and metal objects (above) by color at home (smart), and her collection of vases, lamps, and pretty props of every stripe is the result of a very refined eye. Not to be missed.

Our Hudson, NY, pals Smith Vintage Modern are back at the market, with their mid-century and Deco finds of all kinds: desks, lamps, tables, art, from the U.S., Italy, and all over. Say hi to Kevin, he's nice.

Jaron and his Jarontiques (right) were simply killing it last week. Scandinavian wooden candelabras, Miro prints, chrome lamps, stunning glass vases and carafes--oh man. Jaron's back on Sunday only this week, and he loves to talk shop (and tunes).

Frenchy Jean-Paul was a Flea staple by the back steps, and in Dumbo he brings the finely honed 60s and 70s men's vintage and dead-stock clothes from his Ave. B shop Rue St. Denis, as well as the awesome mod and plastic-fantastic furniture in its sister shop. Bubble lamps, chrome shelves, and more. Depeche-toi!

Big bearded Ray is back this weekend, hopefully with this cool 1933 Brooklyn Bridge etching that somehow didn't sell last week. He's also bringing a trove of stone and wooden Shona art from Zimbabwe this week only. Ray only brings nice stuff, doesn't bowl you over with quantity.

Our pals from Nightwood are doing the Flea (Saturday only), unveiling their latest rejuvenated and homey chairs, stands, and pillows (right). Nadia and Myriah are sweet as pie, so say hi.

What else? Vintage picture frames (Susan Blank), high-class jewelry (Treasures + Pleasures), awesome vintage handbags (Marilyn Hitchcock), primitive Americana (Sage Antiques), awesome Brooklyn/NYC and kitsch postcards (Lon Black)--and of course, Drew Morrison's Pictorial Oddities Roadshow, which you'll have to see to comprehend.
