The Federal Fox

Curated by Tracy and Christian Jester

The Federal Fox is a thoughtfully curated collection of antique and vintage finds, brought to life by Tracy and Christian Jester—a husband-and-wife team with a shared passion for history, design, and timeless craftsmanship.

The business began in 2013 as a small Etsy shop Tracy started with her teenage son, who had an early interest in entrepreneurship. What began as a mother-son venture soon became a beloved creative outlet, blending Tracy’s love for treasure hunting with a growing family tradition. While her son has since grown up and started a family of his own, the spirit of that original adventure lives on.

Now based in Alexandria, Virginia, Tracy and Christian are drawn to pieces with a sense of history—items that feel like they’ve lived a life before. Their collection reflects a love for classic design, quality craftsmanship, and the charm that comes with age and character.

Together, they spend their weekends scouting estate sales, auctions, and markets to uncover timeless pieces with soul. Their offerings include furniture, décor, and vintage curiosities that blend traditional style with a character-rich, collected aesthetic. The Federal Fox now has a permanent booth at Evolution Home.
