The Ell Chamber is a shop for antique, vintage, eclectic and interesting items. Its name came from my mother. This was her name for what most would call an attic. In my childhood home this was the space above the kitchen. As a child I found it filled with wonder and mystery. It was the place for things forgotten or not often used. Canning jars and books shared space with her hope chest and 78 RPM records. It smelled of Hoppe’s No. 9 gun oil and old wool and a hint of last night’s supper. Welcome and mind the step down onto the creaky boards.
