The antiques ranged from elegant furniture to historic paintings (in excess of $17,000), to LOTS of silver (some gorgeous candlesticks and tea services) to estate jewelry. It was every bit elegant and extremely tempting.

I diverted my friend and I to the Nave, just for a moment, because he'd never been there. We were very fortunate that the organist was practicing...and it was brilliant! We went to the balcony where we had the extraordinary pleasure of enjoying a couple of numbers in peaceful tranquility...that private concert could not have been more perfect.
While we were there, the lighting changed, which you'll notice in the following dramatic photo montage...

There's a lot more going on at St. Philips beyond church services. They're also home of one of the more popular Farmers Markets in town—the Peachtree Road Farmers Market, which features some of Atlanta's most popular Atlanta chefs for Chef Demos. And they're the largest producer-only Farmers Market in the State ("producer-only" meaning that everything at the Market has been grown, raised, or made by the seller).
Hope you enjoyed this all-too-brief overview of a mere fraction of the stained glass windows at St. Philips. Now, head over to the wanderlust ATLANTA Facebook Page for more photos!
