    If you are looking for an antiques shop where the owner really knows their business, this is the…read moreone for you, even if you have to drive out to Brookline from Boston (not that far really.) Prices are very reasonable--they are not out to get you but to share their love of antiques with you--and the store encompasses a wide definition of what an antique really is. Sometimes an "antique" can be a lamp or table that is actually very modern in concept and history, but is not appreciated by many homeowners. The owner also has a very good sense of design, and if you tell her where the piece is going to go, she can advise you on whether it is the right choice. Highly recommended!

    Apparently they were on Newbury Street for 20 years prior to moving to their current location in…read moreBrookline, where they've been since for another 20 or so (the commitment, as you can probably tell, is impressive to me). Autrefois definitely did not share the crowded, dusty feel most antique shops I've been to -- I can't profess expertise in the area, but the store seemed pared down without being austere. The pieces were all wonderful, and I know that at least some were artfully restored, so well, in fact, that I even asked the owner about the great condition of most of the things, and she was happy to show me exactly where certain pieces were restored (she seemed to indicate that they are sent off for professional restoration). It's worth noting that I didn't see a piece that was obviously restored, and everything had a great patina. As I told her, if I had the money, I would be a frequent patron!

    West Roxbury Center, West Roxbury

    About halfway into this experience (which is exactly what setting foot into the Reliable Trading…read morePost is -- an experience) I started to wonder if I would make it out alive. The woman at the front, donning Indian Head Dress and watching mid-afternoon soaps among a plethora of crap, told me to "have fun!" after describing the various rooms to visit: 5 upstairs, 1 down below. After the first five, I opted not to go down because I was afraid I might actually have entered the twilight zone or a bad horror movie and would be trapped down there by this crazy lady who collects all manner of -- yes I already said it -- crap. To be fair, a lot of it is not crap at all. For instance, the beautiful old ice box in the first room was gorgeous, in incredible condition, and visibly a true antique. But at $1200, that kind of stuff is more like museum-ware than anythinge else. The broken plastic box of broken jewlery and the $50 collection of ceramic thimbles with the portraits of the nation's presidents fall into the former category. By the third room, I started to feel a little suspicious. This room is actually a kitchen, and either the woman who runs the place is a slob, or she was going for a kind of life-size diorama representing the kitchen of a slob. Cigarette butts snubbed out in an old dirty ashtray sat on the corner of the linoleum counter. But stuff was still apparently for sale, maybe even all the stuff piled in the sink was for sale. I don't know! The fourth room hosted a loud ticking clock and a number of mounted deer heads, which have not been taken care of in the days since the precious animals were shot and killed. An old bridal gown hung yellowing on a door to who knows where. In the fifth room I found the fourth or fifth piece of Abraham Lincoln memorabilia, this was a hand-drawn portrait of the former president. I took up the fantasy that the head-dress lady in the front was probably obsessed with old Abe and drew it herself. Like I said, I didn't make it to the basement. Perhaps next time I go in I will, but I will have to be accompanied by a friend or family member. I will go back, though. Not to buy anything, just for the experience.

    Hands down one of the strangest places I've encountered since moving to New England. I have loved…read moregoing into antique stores since coming here as the weird and creepy items abound here........what is up with those dolls..... they are the things of nightmares!!!! This store has some unique characteristics. 1. You are greeted by the owner upon entering.....(note...this is not an experience for a quick visit) and she will tell you that the store is truly a trading post, everything is negotiable and give you a layout of the store. 2. Next you get to start going through the store that is crowded and difficult to navigate as it's FULL of stuff. As is typical of any antiques store, some of the stuff is crap and some things are truly wonderful. I found that the prices here are pretty fair... If you really want to spend some time exploring and find some hard to find items, you should be able to find them here.
