Description
Hi! Welcome to Camlen Antiques Online!
Cameron and Helen Brown began Camlen Inc. in 1982 as an antique shop and a Christmas store in a growing tourist town. The business grew steadily with three expansions added onto the existing Victorian building.
The Christmas store became well known for its unique items and its comprehensive and creative Department 56 displays. The antique business grew steadily also, as Cam expanded his network of antique pickers. In 1996, after wholesaling antiques to one large American customer for more than a decade, we began to expand our wholesale client base. We increased to about eight different antique dealers in Ontario, Bristish Columbia and the New England states. In the process, we expanded our workshop from one full-time employee to four full-time people and began to manufacture 'antiques' with old wood to keep up with the growing demand for furniture to suit people's modern needs.
Over the following three years, our operation continued to expand steadily and we began to make solid pine furniture form new wood. At the same time, we were buying and selling 150 year old log cabins and using their interior wood for furniture. In January 2000, we attended our first trade show in Toronto, Canada where our product was very well received. In the fall of that same year we moved and subsequently sold the Christmas store, in order to be able to streamline our business to furniture.
