The Antique Traders

Beautiful selection. Super rude woman working there, made us feel less than welcome, not a problem we will take our business else where. She looked us up and down and insinuated we could not afford anything in the store. Not a way to run a business.

I don’t get the hype — antique stores in Cole Valley and Burbank in San Jose are better in my opinion. Plus, the salesperson was annoying. I don’t need you to follow me around the store and interrogate me about «what I’m looking for» — I just want to browse, lady. Anyways, sounds like other people love them, which is good! Maybe it just wasn’t for me.

Antiques Traders has an incredible selection of beautiful things. From a quarter of a million for absolutely gorgeous one of a kind things from all over the world to fun things to just decorate with. All of quality, all with a straight scoop.
The best Tiffany’s, Handel’s, Gallet’s — beautfil glass. Artwork that is (and was) in a museum.
It’s worthwhile yo look for good things that you want to hang on to and this is a great place for that.

Ahhh… if I only had more money, I’d furnish my home with all the treasures in this wonderful antiques store. The owner is charismatic, has an excellent reputation and is very knowledgeable.
Yes, they have *real* Tiffany lamps. I’m talking the ones that cost $ 9,600 to $ 44,000. And other beautiful lamps that cost far less but aren’t true Tiffany. Antique Traders also has other small pieces (commodes, dressers, tables, objets d’art) and their prices are about right since they’re very good pieces from a dealer you can trust.
Yes, we’re still talking some coin but. I’d rather have one really nice piece I’ll love forever than a bunch of junk that added up over time and replacement cost because it’s cheaply made costs more than the «real thing.»
That said, it’s over my price point for the moment — but I will be back once finances improve. This is a little gem of a store.

This is not the kind of place where you want to accidentally trip and break something. :) OMG. The things in here are CRAZY expensive. I’m talking «we’ll be back when we win the lotto» expensive. It is beautiful, fabulous, wonderful, amazing stuff though. It’s like walking into an episode of Antiques Roadshow that features only the high end treasures. They sell Tiffany and Handel lamps, stunning stained glass windows, all kinds of fancy sculptures, and furniture. They even have a small selection of jewelry. This place is really remarkable. Even if you can’t afford a thing in here, the owner is incredibly nice and will spend time telling you about the different pieces. It is just delightful to see everything that these walls hold. And guess what? While I’m not religious, I do play the lotto religiously. Should I win, I will be back!
