Kelly Wood

“I moved to the Valley in 2024, born in San Francisco, and raised in the Bay Area. My love for antiques began with growing up in a historic city, using my great grandparents’ dining furniture, and inheriting my great aunt’s wedding silverware. From a young age, I was taught to respect and admire vintage / antique items. As a result, I enjoy polishing silver, waxing wood, ironing, and, of course, collecting.

“In the past, I built a collection that contained glass, furniture, figurines, and decorative plates from all over the world: Kenya, Tanzania, Egypt, Turkey, Morocco, Jordan, Israel, and Greece. Within the last few years, I downsized those collections in order to focus on costume jewelry, handbags, and kitchen pieces from the mid- to late 20th century. Currently, I am collecting functional and practical items by Brookpark, Vernon Ware, Melmac, Electrolux, and Corning Visions. My color palate includes distinctive colors like amber, avocado, harvest yellow, and burnt sienna.”
