Selling Your Collection via Auction
A lifetime immersed in the collector community, he has handled significant collections of vintage advertising and memorabilia. His background provides firsthand insight into what collectors value—authentic materials, quality construction, and respect for the original designs that made these signs iconic.
Porcelain Advertising was created in response to a market increasingly filled with lightweight aluminum signs and low-quality reproductionsl. Instead of shortcuts, the company focuses on producing signage using traditional materials and methods, including kiln-fired porcelain enamel on heavy steel and real hand-blown glass neon.
The goal is simple:recreate the feel, durability, and visual impact of the signs that once hung outside service stations and storefronts throughout the mid-20th century.
Today, Darrien continues to work closely with collectors, designers, and businesses seeking distinctive statement pieces for garages, showrooms, restaurants, and commercial spaces. His work combines an appreciation for American advertising history with a commitment to craftsmanship, authenticity, and preserving the spirit of the originals with modern electrical components and 110V UL Listed Power Supplies offering a vintage sign with modern safety standards.
Working with real kiln-fired porcelain enamel and handblown glass bent by hand isn’t easy. Each has difficulties and flaws that needed to be addressed which is why we currently have an accepted and verified Patent Pending for Neon Porcelain Modular Can with USPTO.
Porcelain Advertising operates from Central Florida and serves customers throughout the United States.
