As you know, our mission is to help dealers in all ways that we can. With our new dealer spotlight we hope to inspire you. We are proud to introduce you to Margaret Schwartz of Modern Antiquarian.
Margaret began her career at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. This position played a key role in inspiring Margaret to pursue her interest in the home decor business. After a fateful trip to the UK and booking an Antiques Diva Tour with Toma Cark Haines and Gail McLeod, Margaret returned home with a container full of antiques!
Returning home and opening her own brick and mortar store, Margaret was able to apply and refine her signature style and passion for home design, hand picking her favorite finds, including furniture, fine art, lighting, rugs, and antiques. Nicknamed the “Modern Antiquarian,” Margaret believes in mixing the old with the new to create a curated and edited home tailored to the client’s specific taste.
Margaret’s commitment to finding fine antiques has given her recognition in the field. She was named US Antiques Young Gun of the Year in 2015 and joined LAPADA in 2016. LAPADA is an international organization representing over 550 antiques dealers in the UK, across Europe, and a select few in the USA. With her passion for fine antiques and traveling, Margaret has really created a collection of unique one of a kind pieces. Whether you’re looking for something specific or searching for a beautiful addition to your space, Modern Antiquarian has it all. We are so proud she is part of the Ronati family.
