Tyner Antiques from Atlanta and Roussett Antiques and Textiles from Austin via New Orleans.   Both are antiquarians of note.   Alice Tyner who owns A. Tyner specializes in Swedish antiques and her merchandise fits in perfectly with The Gray Door.   All the painted gray and white finishes, the sexy and curvy lines of the Mora clocks, the chests, the desks, the settees of Swedish antiques visually blends with The Gray Door’s Louis XV and XVI furniture.  </div><div align="justify">Kathy Alexander who owns Roussett Antiques and Textiles closed her popular New Orleans shop after Hurricane Katrina and settled in Austin, opening up a store there on Burnet at The Courtyard Shops.    An expert on antique textiles, her antiques are mostly fine French and Italian.  Scattered throughout The Gray Door, her regal merchandise add a certain class.  </div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"><img alt="image" border="0" height="484" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_t8-Y4w1UKrc/TGL-_aVv1bI/AAAAAAAA2Ns/CCHlwL298VM/image_thumb%5B43%5D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="image" width="217" /> </div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify">With both Roussett and A.Tyner now in Houston, a trip to Round Top may no longer be needed.  I know I used to go to see the Swedish antiques that A. Tyner brought because we don’t have a dealer in Houston with such extensive Swedish inventory – until now, that is.   Donna couldn’t have made two better choices to join her on West Alabama than Roussett and A. Tyner.    If you haven’t visited  The Gray Door lately – be sure to stop by.     All three, The Gray Door, A. Tyner and Roussett are also on <a href="http://www.1stdibs.com/">1st Dibs</a>.  </div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="center"> <i><img alt="image" border="0" height="684" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_t8-Y4w1UKrc/TGL_EwFbH9I/AAAAAAAA2OA/S4NYqpFkvQs/image11_thumb.png?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="1028" /></i><i> </i></div><div align="center"><i>The main showroom at The Gray Door.   All the furniture is newly recovered in creamy linens and muslin – creating a soothing and cohesive atmosphere.</i></div><br /><br /><div align="center"><i><img alt="image" border="0" height="964" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_t8-Y4w1UKrc/TGL_LTQsrZI/AAAAAAAA2Oc/mAPE8jthOcs/image71_thumb.png?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="image" width="963" /></i><i> </i></div><div align="center"><i>The Swedish corner cabinet is one of two.   The Swedish settee is period Rococo – one of the finer pieces from A.
