Antiques in Newark, DE

“Earlier I received a box full of junk from my grandma's estate. John took the time to go through everything and sorted it. There was far more value then I thought and he paid me well. He was kind and polite and the place was well organized and clean. A great experience.”

“Really cool antique mall, and a place I love stopping by. There are two floors, and each room or area is a different local antique seller, giving the place a great variety of items to shop through. My personal favorites are the arrays of books, the cookbook shelf, the occasional splashes of Corningware pieces and porcelain, the big postcard rack (where you can find a few wartime letters to sweethearts), and the varied selection of old sewing accoutrement. Great place to find some more unusual sewing tools that normally are upcharged on sites like etsy and ebay. My current darning tools and non-synthetic clothing brushes were pieces I got here for under $10 each (some as low as $4).
I'd say a majority of the space is very fair in their prices, though some vendors sell certain items at a slightly higher rate.
It's a relaxing spot to walk around and the staff is friendly.
You will be asked to leave large bags at the front, but I don't mind this. There are baskets available, and they can also hold your finds up front as well. They also offer spots to sit, and water to rehydrate if you need to.
Since it's an old house and the rooms are quite packed, this is not a wheelchair-accessible store, however the staff are very willing to assist where they can.
There are also a small handful of culturally insensitive pieces for sale, which I believe is worth noting for BIPOC patrons of the store. I won't personally dock points from the shop for this, as it makes up a tiny percentage of the items available (and is an unfortunately common occurance when antiquing), but it definitely can be a bit of a jumpscare if you aren't expecting it.
Otherwise, if you're into antiques and vintage items, including local DE history, it's worth a check out. The owner is often working the front herself, and is a very kind and passionate lady. I always have great interactions with her.”

“First time visitor to this shop and very impressed. Aisle upon aisle of unique finds. Friendly folks to help you out. Added bonus is that my husband collects the very old Matchbox cars from the sixties. These are almost impossible to find locally and found a large selection here. Valentine's Day present solved! And solved much less expensive than what I saw on eBay.”
