The Purple Moon is West Virginia’s only mid-20th Century design studio and one of the state’s cutting-edge art galleries. While originally focusing only on vintage home furnishings, accessories and art, The Purple Moon has grown to be a major venue for some of the regions best contemporary artists.
The Purple Moon blends the best of new art with the vintage – always with an eye to the modern. Owned and operated by Chuck and Connie Hamsher, serious collectors themselves, The Purple Moon has received local and national accolades for their attention to detail in selecting top quality vintage merchandise and art and for displaying these items in a way that is nothing short of glamorous.
The Purple Moon regularly rotates art shows and presents art from a growing number of artists from both in and out of West Virginia.
This site is dedicated to art at The Purple Moon. Vintage mid-20th Century items from home furnishings to glass and dinnerware are showcased on our main retail website http://www.shopthepurplemoon.com.
As we are still in the middle of the Covid19 pandemic we will be using this site to present “virtual” art shows including safe and easy methods of purchasing the artworks shown. Works shown here can also be viewed in our showroom.
