“My personal experience with Ryan is that he is a wonderful resource for auction, sales and value of your precious items. He is honest and extremely knowledgeable. I recommend Nest Egg and Ryan highly! Also a reputable resource for Realtors with assistance needed for estate sales, and evaluations, as well!”
“The owner is exceptionally kind and trustworthy. He took on the extra effort and expense to insure a fragile marble bust was packed correctly and shipped across the country, because he understood how important the bust was to our family. I would confidentially recommend buying from him to my closest friends.”
“This place has been on my list for a while but I haven't been able to visit until yesterday. What a showcase or the weird and wonderful! Visual stimulation everywhere! You can tell the owners take there business very seriously. Bonus! Selene(Sp?) read my tarot cards and I'm very impressed. I don't know how she does it. I guess she's "gifted". Bonus! It's in the same building as Petrol Head Cafe' and Dead Language Brewery. It's all right there!”
“Definitely a hidden gem if you’re an antique lover!! The shop is ran by a very sweet couple who love to get to know their customers. You can find almost any antique good you are looking for in this store and prices are fairly reasonable for the quality of the goods. They are open to haggling down prices so don’t be afraid to ask how much something is and show that you want to buy it! This is my favorite place to go for antique jewelry.?”

134 Main Street Extension, Middletown“I'm thrilled to say that my current job here is my most fulfilling , fun job to date. Having previously worked as a Certified Veterinary Technician for 15 plus years , but after getting Lyme Disease I turned to my hobbies which was finding "old stuff" . so being offered a position here was amazing.
However, what truly sets this company apart is the owners' ( Courtney , Maxine *Kimone*)unwavering commitment to community service and giving back to the people ,Beyond their exceptional leadership, I've also had the unique opportunity to leverage my love for vintage items. As the company gets a lot of random things, I've been able to identify and restore valuable antiques, giving them a new life.
With its extensive inventory and competitive prices, Estate Treasures is a must-visit for anyone seeking quality goods. I wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone in need.”
“I adore this antique shop. Always a treasure to be found and a fun experience looking through the vast selection of high quality, unique antiques. The owner, Jarrett, is so knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure. Highly recommend this gem of a shop!”

214 Park Rd, West Hartford“The White Rabbit is such a fun find! Emily is the owner and she's there every time I've gone to this charming store! The store has so many cool and interesting little things, like beaded keychains, hair accessories, candles, jewelry, greeting cards and decor. Some of it is vintage and some is locally hand made. The back of the store is the thrift clothing section. Everything looks to be in excellent shape. There's also records, shoes and purses. I saw a Dior coat, and some items by Burberry and by Alexander McQueen. They are selective about their selection of items they accept. There isn't any of that awful stuffy smell. It feels and looks like everything is brand new. It's easy to look and touch things without the fear of everything falling. This store isn't stuffed at all. I can't wait to return and see what else they have.”

“Highly recommend! We moved and do to the move and the container, there was damage to one our furniture pieces. Since the furniture line no longer exists we couldn’t find a whole new man’s chest. We found this place through google search and they were actually responsive and able to fix something that wasn’t an antique! We were amazed at how well it came out, it’s as if nothing ever happened. Thank you so much furniture clinic! We will definitely return and recommend to anyone else who needs furniture fixed!”
“A wonderfully curated shop with amazing staff. It’s always worth stopping in to see what new things they’ve sourced. Every staff member I have ever interacted with at Circa Antiques has been lovely and they’ve even gone out of their way to call me about items they knew I was looking for. Couldn’t recommend it more!”
“So glad that I found this place! Great items and a great staff! Plenty of treasures for a reseller like myself with a staff willing and ready to negotiate AND carefully pack fragiles.”
“My new favorite furniture and decor shop! I found so many cute and unique things :) The owner is also super sweet and accommodating. Definitely worth checking out!”
“I simply love the quality of their merchandise and the knowledgeable staff. They are never pushy. I have always felt comfortable browsing the store. Should I have questions, the staff is attentive and informative. I have bought several items from them over the years, and each has a very special place in my home. Latest purchase was today.”
“Whenever I am in the area, which is about once or twice a month, I stop in. They sell a lot of cool stuff. Everything's is priced to be a great value. It is easy to get in and out, the place is on the parkway, the "BT" as the locals call it.”
