Oaky Doke is much more than Okay. The objects are so beautiful; the prices are right; the descriptions are detailed and informative; the packaging is carefully done; and the communication always pleasant. I can’t wait to see what amazing finds Tim comes up with next!

...just what I was looking for - lots of old character but in really great condition. The customer service I received was outstanding and friendly, with delivery all the way to Scotland in two days. I also love the shop's ethos... and so many fabulous and interesting items for sale! Amazing shop and customer experience.
