250+ dealers- Largest selection in Richmond.
West End Antiques Mall takes hours to see everything- it's huge!! There is great variety to choose from, with lots of furniture. There is an 'upper end' feel without fancy prices and sales pressure. Everyone there is helpful but never pressures you to buy. I really like the return policy- 72 hours is plenty of time to make sure you really like what you bought. I wish other antique stores would allow returns like that! I found lots of seasonal choices from most dealers. Right now, there is great selection of outdoor/patio furniture and decorative items. Prices are reasonable, too--Be sure to ask for their "best" price on things over $20. There is something for everybody here- especially furniture & glassware. But it is mostly antiques, no baseball cards or NEW collectible stuff. Get a map when you go in! It's easy to get turned around & a little lost!

A true blow-the-dust-off-a-treasure antique megaplex with bargain hunting galore..
The Scene
West End Antqiues Mall's partnership with next door neighbor Antique Depot, for marketing purposes, is a boon for shoppers. Huge aisles of booths equals hours of browsing time. With over 140 vendors, each with a unique specialization and eclectic taste in items bought, finding a stall to browse in should be snap. Pressure-free browsing.
Finds
Architectural items like cornices, a trellis, old stones or old windows (some with stained glass). A solid selection of redone wicker outdoor furniture. The best outdoor furniture is old wicker. Plenty of material to draw from for the artist in you. A great way to gather ideas or inspiration for your own design or creative needs, antique shops are a favorite with designers and artists. Plus much of the stock is cheap enough to impulse buy or repurpose to your wishes.
