toluca lake holiday open house at pergolina

every year we open our doors to the public after hours to share the holiday spirit with locals and visitors from all over town. this year our tradition of having an angel in the window was given a twist. a forest fairy visited instead... adding that magic that pergolina is known for.
we thank all of you who came to see our hard work glitter, shop our wares, made us laugh, shared your families and friends. pergolina appreciates your support and friendship throughout the year and wishes you a very happy holiday!
if you missed the big night not to fret, there is still plenty of magic to go around. come on by!

portrait of a book store antiques - now at pergolina!

hello there, we are very excited to announce that our dear friend julie von zerneck of the now retired but oh so very loved portrait of a bookstore has very generously decided to sell some of her gorgeous antiques in our shop!
that being said we know that many of our customers were also once portrait of a bookstore customers and we thought you might appreciate this lovely note from julie...

Since retiring in May, I've missed you all so very much. I miss seeing your lovely faces, talking about our lives, discussing books and helping you pick out the perfect gift in what was always an ever-changing sea of gifts. I hope you all are well and happy and thriving and I hope to see you all again, this time at Pergolina, where antiques like those we loved and cherished for twenty-six years at Portrait will be available to you again.
I am overjoyed to announce that Paulanna Cuccinello, my dear friend and owner of Pergolina, has invited me to include our beloved antiques and antiquarian books in her extraordinary shop, which I have frequented for many years -- an enchanting place renowned for its exquisite taste, rich variety and uncanny grasp of the whimsical, the quaint and the unusual.
Stop in and have a look, won't you? You'll find everything from vintage bread baskets to antique cutlery to vintage typewriters... and so, so much more!
Julie von Zerneck
