What We’ll Do

If you thought that Steve Wiman, owner of Austin’s iconic vintage store Uncommon Objects, would have a weird home, then you would be 100% right! This house is a collection of collections and Steve's home tour was one of our top rated online experiences in 2020.

Join us on March 3rd to explore a treasure trove of personal acquisitions from around the globe. You will find collections of carved stone books, mother and child figurines, hand made Christmas ornaments, Mexican clay bird wall pockets and balls of all kinds including impressive string balls and Chinese “puzzle balls”. Contemporary art (much created by close friends) is peppered throughout the home as well. You might just walk away from this tour wanting to start a new collection of your own!

Steve Wiman was born in Snyder, Texas and has lived in Texas all his life. His background in the worlds of art, design and restaurant decor has informed the life he has created for himself. His shop, Uncommon Objects, is a tightly edited collection of antique goods that reflects Steve’s personal passion for worn surfaces and objects that tell a story. You can learn more about Steve and his store on Facebook or Instagram.
