Saturday Bethany and I continued our "market research" and landed in Bethesda, MD to meet our new blogging friend, Loi Thai of Tone on Tone. We stopped in at his namesake store, Tone on Tone, owned by Loi and his partner Tom, and were wowed by their beautiful Swedish antiques. It's like we were old friends, talking about what we knew about each other from our blogs, and spending the afternoon visiting and drooling over everything in his shop.
His furnishings, accessories and displays were so beautifully curated. There are no reproductions here, they are all authentic antiques! He humbly told me he just 'peddles used furniture', but more like a peddler to royalty! They go on shopping trips to Belgium and Sweden to hand select items for the store. He called all of his customers by name, referencing their homes, so you know he has a loyal following! Take a look around:
His store feels like all of my favorite Swedish images all rolled into one.
Loi's kind and generous hospitality and friendly personality if proof that our blogging experiences are rewarding us triple fold with the friends we are making.
Check out his blog, Tone on Tone.
