Vintage Hand Carved Wooden Monk by DerBayz on Etsy

Vintage Hand Carved Wooden Monk by DerBayz on Etsy

What a great vintage piece. I was told it was brought to the U.S. from Poland approx 30 years ago. Alot of wonderful detail.

Being a vintage piece it does have some wear as one would expect and the wood has a crack but is not broken thru. (see last photo).

Measures approx 7" tall and 2" wide.

It would look great in many decor styles!

There is an increased shipping cost with this item because of the weight and dimensions. 

Featured on Indiana Water Daily, Our Forgotten Treasures are Getting Noticed

I have to say when I woke up this morning I was feeling a little down.  The Christmas holiday season is over and I was concerned about how the shop is going do after the Christmas choas.  But I was greeted by a message stating that DerBayz Collectables has been featured in the Indiana Water Daily for the 60's Crystal King Crown Amber Water and Wine Glasses! http://paper.li/f-1342013129. Look under the leisure section to find the article.

I don't know if this means the shop will be successful after the Christmas shoppers stop looking but I am excited and I have a renewed sense of hope for the small business.  

Thank you to the Indiana Water Daily for the great post, We feel honored to be listed.

Not Even Multiple Sclerosis Can Keep This Working Mother From Running Her Own Business

DerBayz Collectables has always been a dream of mine. The name DerBayz is very significant to us, as it is a merging of two families. My youngest daughters last name is Durr and my husbands last name is Boese (pronounced Bayze). When we first started dating all of my friends told me that when I opened my business I should call it DerBayz because it is a great name and it would merge the two families. I guess it really has. This truly is a family business. My husband and two kids are all helping to make this store a success. My 16 year old daughters takes most of pictures for the store as practice for her photography career, my 9 year old daughter helps to clean and inventory the items, my husband helps me restore some of the more injured or neglected items and we all get in the car on Saturday or Sunday (sometimes both) and go searching for new hidden treasures. It is great family time.

So why vintage collectables? Well in 1996 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and I spent all of my time, other than work, at home in the beginning scared to go out into public. eBay was a wonderful place for me back then and I started a collection of antique and/or vintage books. One day I was searching Craigslist and I came across a seller who had a book that I had been searching for, for years “The Adventures of Uncle Wiggly Longears” (my grandmother had read this book to be as a child and I wanted to copy so I could read it to my children). This seller refused to ship because it was fragile and he did not want to take the risk of shipping it. My love of this book gave me the courage and strength to overcome my fear and go out into public. That’s when I found a whole new world for collectables. It wasn’t only books that I found, it was silver, bells, figurines, crystal and researching and learning the story behind each item was so gratifying. But like most things we get older and these items start collecting dust as children and work get in the way. That is when the idea of opening a store telling the items story came to me, I can still enjoy finding and restore the beauty inside. Then I can find them a home where they will be loved and appreciated.

There is a story behind every item, you just have to search and find it.
