Angie & James · the real people behind the hunt
Antiques, salvage and buried treasure — across Asia and wherever the road takes us. We're Angie and James. Come hunting with us.
Subscribe free for the Starter Kit + our AI Field Guides — everything you need to start hunting (and dealing) smarter.
We turn up somewhere new, dig for the good stuff in the places most people walk past, work a deal, and tell you what it is and what it's worth. Some we buy. Some we just can't leave behind.

A dealer's knowledge, honestly given — what it is, where it's from, and what it's really worth.
The best part. The back room, the long silence, the handshake. We buy properly, and show you how.
New places, real craft, good lunches, and the freedom to go find them. The life is the point.
Every other antiques channel hunts like it's 1986. We don't. The eye still decides — but a modern hunter can do so much more. We put the new toolkit to work in the field, show you exactly how, and help you up your own game.
Snap a piece for an instant read on maker, era and what to check — even a foreign hallmark, translated.
Auction records and live prices, pulled up while you're still stood over the thing.
Log every find with photos and GPS, plan the route, and know what a town tends to yield.
Proxies and auctions that turn up stock you'd never find on foot, anywhere in the world.
James is a treasure hunter at heart — he loves the energy and craftsmanship someone poured into an object, and the thrill of the chase: the market, the back room, the real chance of finding something everyone else walked past. Years of building businesses taught him the money was only ever meant to buy the freedom to go and do this.
Angie's a butterfly — here for the people, the places, the food and the whimsical: Art Deco, Tiffany glass, anything bright and beautiful. Together they took a leap to build a new life doing what they love, and they'd love to help you chase your own version of it.
Everything you need to start hunting (and dealing) smarter — free the moment you sign up. Plus the odd email when there's a find, a story, or first dibs worth sending.
Small groups. Curated routes through the best sourcing grounds on earth. Private dealer access, real camaraderie — and you leave with a piece you found yourself, and the knowledge to do it again.
We're planning the first trips now. Add your name and you'll be first to hear, and first through the door.
The real ones get their own episode. Tap a card to see what it turned out to be worth.
A working dealer's eye, hunting to your wants list across Europe and Asia. Selective, discreet, and only ever pieces we'd have in our own home.
