vintage finds
Welcome to Vintage Finds at Frazier + Wing!
My focus here is on searching out and offering unusual, quirky and beautiful vintage pieces that have a certain “something special” about them.
I love all things made in Japan, mother of pearl anything, colorful glass, the charming and handmade….so you will see lots of all of that here as well as whatever else catches my eye or makes my heart beat a little faster.
Thanks to my parents – Truman Frazier and Nancy Wing – I have had a lifelong love of vintage treasure hunting. I have been collecting and gathering these special pieces for quite some time. Now I want to share my treasures with you!
I will be adding new items frequently, so check back often.
Please do get in touch if you have questions or need further details about what you find here.
Thanks for visiting and happy shopping!

- Tissue Storks
- $100
- buy
Oh my goodness, how to explain how fabulous this pair of storks are? First of all, they are made of tissue paper, hand painted, and stand on wire legs. The beaks are painted wood. Each one has the original paper label that says Made in Germany, Federal German Republic. I believe they were made as baby shower decorations or favors and that they are quite a rare pair to come across. They stand about 10 inches tall.
