The process

You bring the brief. I bring the deep search.

01

Send the signal

Share the piece, reference image, mood, size, budget, and deadline. Specific is welcome; a feeling is enough to begin.

02

I work the market

I search trusted resale platforms, dealers, private networks, and overlooked corners—then edit the field down to the strongest finds.

03

You choose

Review the options with clear pricing and condition notes. When one feels right, you approve the purchase and I coordinate the next step.

What I source

Past-season icons and future favorites.

  • Ongoing candidate updates

Buy Grail Hunt — $250

Sourcing fees are due only after your piece is found and you approve the total quote. Item cost, shipping, duties, and taxes are separate and never marked up.

A sharp eye, an unreasonable memory, and the patience to find the right one.

I built this service around the part of shopping I love most: the hunt. Years of tracking old collections, obscure labels, resale markets, and footwear have taught me where to look—and when to keep looking.

This isn’t a designer-only shopping service, and it isn’t an endless list of links. It’s a personal edit for people who care about specificity: the shape, the season, the colorway, the small label, the piece that makes the rest of a wardrobe click.

FAQ

Before we begin.

What if I don’t know the exact brand?

That’s completely workable. Share references, a silhouette, an era, a color, or simply the occasion. The clearer the feeling, the better the starting point.

How long does a search take?

Standard requests usually receive an initial shortlist within 7–10 business days. Grail hunts can take longer because availability is unpredictable; timing and update cadence are agreed upfront.

Is authenticity guaranteed?

Every option is screened carefully and seller evidence is reviewed, but no remote review can replace professional authentication. For higher-value pieces, third-party authentication can be arranged before purchase at the client’s cost.

What happens if I pass on every option?

You’re never required to buy. There’s no deposit and no fee unless your piece is found and you approve the total quote — if you pass on every option, you pay nothing.

Can you source internationally?

Yes. International candidates can be included when the seller ships to your location. Duties, taxes, shipping, and any forwarding costs are shown separately whenever they’re known.
