Braden River Antiques is amazing and deserves 5 stars. The inside is a feast for the senses, I could spend days wandering through the collection of unique and magical treasures. The owner was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We walked away with a decorative garden sculpture of a stout viking king, still trying to decide on where to put him. Anyone who gives anything less than 5 stars to Braden River Antiques just doesn’t understand or appreciate what they have to offer. We will most definitely be back again and again.
Thank you guys! So nice to meet you!

The owner was personable, knowledgeable & a joy to speak with. His shop will be the reason I come back to visit Sarasota sooner than later!

The owner was great to deal with while making a purchase. They shipped the painting which was purchased over fb very quickly. The painting was wrapped so great with care it took over half an hour to unwrap! 😊
Thanks ! Glad we could make the deal happen !
