Those with a passion for travel and discovery are collectors by nature... a worn leather steamer trunk from Cairo, a carved teak alter table from Singapore, a list of places to visit in Amsterdam suggested by a fellow traveler in a Parisian Café. The allure of exotic destinations and the mystery of indigenous cultures evoke in all of us the spirit of adventure.
For even the most seasoned traveler, home remains the center of the compass, and a place where treasured acquisitions are displayed with pride, each with a story to be told. And the ability to savor the memories of grand adventures, through special items collected along the way, is one of the rewards of a well-traveled life.
