The Tallmadge Ave Story

Tallmadge Ave began as a real street — a place one of us grew up, and the home we both keep trying to find our way back to.

So we look for objects that have already lived a life: the brass, the porcelain, the embroidered linen that warmed someone else's rooms first.

Each one comes to us having proven it was worth keeping. Now it's waiting for its next home — maybe yours.

Why Tallmadge Ave

Homes should not feel purchased.

They should feel assembled slowly.

Tallmadge Ave exists for people who believe objects should carry time, memory, and character.

Each piece we offer has lived another life before entering yours.

Shafford Ceramic Mallard Figurines, Pair — Japan

Every den had a pair of ducks somewhere — up on the shelf above the good chair, mid-takeoff and going nowhere, part of the furniture of somebody's afternoons.

This pair are Shafford mallard drakes, made in Japan: green heads, white collars, wings caught in the second before flight, each one glazed by hand on its own rocky base.

They don't do anything. They just hold a corner and make a room feel a little more like a place you remember.

Pair of Shafford ceramic mallard figurines, Japan. Sold as a set. $90.
