I always love coming to the Antiquarium....but I am loving it even more now that WILBUR (a sweet new vintage store) has opened in the basement. The prices are great, and the owner will help you pick just the right thing. The little stall feels cozy ...everywhere you look is a carefully placed treasure. Don't miss this place! Just what the Antiquarium (and my closet) needed.
Pros: everything so far....

Check out the new space, WILBUR, downstairs at the Antiquarian! The guy sells new and vintage clothes at a reasonable price. The space is colorful and artfully arranged in a cluttered way. Wilbur also does consignment! A fun shopping experience.

Avoid the man who answers the phone and owns the shopping area on the right when you walk in the door. This man is miserable, angry and he will convince you to leave and never return. Get passed him and you will have a lovely time in this unique shopping environment where you are sure to find many, one of a kind treasures and much nicer people. A recent telephone call to the store ended with this man screaming at me and telling me to go f myself. Apparently I called when they were too busy to answer my inquiry. He could have simply asked me to call back at a better time. Avoid him at all costs. PS Don't miss the basement!!!
Pros: Suburb merhandise at all but one shop.
Cons: One very mean, snarly old guy.

There is a lot going on in the Basement of the old Antiquarian- New, young designers and artists are starting to open booths selling their wares. Its becoming a great place to get original pieces at reasonable prices. Hopefully more vendors will fill in the empty spaces.

anytime you need an amazing vintage dress or new/old cords- and don't feel like wading through thrift stores, you know you will find something perfect at the antiquarian. jenny's vintage in the back space and dial v for vintage downstairs are both sure shots. and the prices are suprisingly inexpensive. and i love chatting with the vendors.

Great place to find a variety of 20th century collectibles and clothing. The place smells real musty and like mothballs, but it's worth a visit!
Pros: variety
Cons: smelly
