One of my very favorite places in town. The shop keep is friendly and knowledgeable. Good prices. Always new stuff. He finds unique pieces! If you like antiques, go by at least once every 2-3 months as he always has new stuff.

I've bought several beautiful things. Most recently, a beautiful table. Garrett and the folks at the store are always friendly and helpful. Also this shop has a lot of high quality antiques vs cheap stuff. So the prices aren't bargain basement but fair for the quality of the items they've collected.

Love this antique store he's got so many awesome things very nice guy he's bought a few things for me always nice to hop in there with something and have him buy it from you but if you ever need any antiques or anything like that I'm sure he's got what you need don't hesitate to stop in because you might see something you like or somebody else would like.

A treasure trove of actual antiques. This is not a bric-a-brac store,nor is it an upmarket goodwill. They actually have real antiques and heirlooms. The staff are extremely helpful and the store is packed with gifts and collectors items with still enough room to maneuver between displays. Worth taking some time to browse.

I was pleasantly surprised that I decided to stop into this cool place. Enjoyed doing business with Gayle. If you have questions about things you may want to sell, she’s a straight shooter about what to do or what will sell etc. which is great since she’s been in this business for decades. Her store has beautiful, original items that are very fairly priced. Anyone on here that has complained probably didn’t really listen to her. I’ll be back to check out this store every time I’m in Jax for sure!

After speaking by phone Gayle went out of her way to have my late father's watches looked at. I was over the moon when she got back with me and said she had a offer. WOW. Not only smiling ear to ear but so very thankful. I had shared my health issues with Gayle and by the end of my visit she had me smiling. She's someone I'd enjoy sitting on the front porch with, having coffee and talking politics. Thank you Gayle for being someone I consider to be a friend. God Bless You Jodi P.S. to the guy who said Gayle doesn't like tattoos I have a full sleeve. Maybe it was your cologne..LOL just kidding
