How could I have not known about this time-warping, elegant, delightful, surprising, rare, expansive modernist / brutalist emporium? I walked in for the first time and two hours later emerged from the best design bubble I have been inside in years. And with three remarkable objects and artwork that has since lifted up our homes. Bravo. Bravo. Bravo. See you all soon! read more

Gucci Italy 1970's cane that I acquired from Mantiques Modern, they were kind enough to repair the tip free of charge when I foolishly caught it in my home doorframe and splintered it. The gentlemen are indeed gentlemen, fantastic taste, fair market pricing for exceptional and unique pieces. Always patient and take the time to share information on pieces you're interested in. Thanks as always! read more

See all

Could buy a lot from here all at once. Great curation and you can tell the owner is passionate based on just the harmony between objects.

The rudest most unfriendly staff. I went there to purchase an expensive item i even told the guy at the counter that I emailed earlier. He could barely look up from his computer screen. Never offered to the get the item off the top shelf, never asked if I wanted to see it. I would NEVER spend my money there. They need some serious customer service training. read more

The owner is very knowledgeable and very fair with his prices. Thank you Cody for letting me visit the store.

This place is an incredible curated experience. Super knowledgeable assistance and found exactly what I was looking for. Could get lost in here all afternoon with the collection of things from art, collective design, jewelry, bar ware, objects, sculptures and so many other special things. read more

I am amused at all the reviews... It is similar to the story about the Rolls Royce... I happen upon this unique store when I went to see Marilyn Maye! I LOVE the shop...it is luxurious and has such a fabulous assortment of things I DO NOT need... Enjoy the moment and IF you REALLY want something THEY will sell it to you! Great Store!

This is an interesting store with many unique and interesting items. I'd rate it higher except: 1) No one greeted or asked our group if we needed any help. It just felt a little odd to walk through an empty store and not get acknowledged by the two people behind the counter. 2) Nothing is priced. Perhaps that means I cannot afford anything in the place, but it's tough to shop and not have any idea what the prices are. I saw a dozen interesting items, but I didn't want to bother the people busy ignoring us to ask what each was priced. Mantiques Modern seems more like an open warehouse for someone's interior design business than an actual decor and antique shop. I'm not sure if I was supposed to drag an indifferent employee around with me asking, "How much is that?," "And that?," "And that?" a hundred times, but it didn't seem worthwhile. As a result, this was more like visiting an interesting tiny museum than an actual store. read more

It really is an awesome store, very cool and unique stuff inside. I had seen this store featured a few times on tv and magazine and was super excited to visit on my trip to NYC. Everything is very overpriced. Which is fine! They had some good stuff that would be okay for a splurge.. When I finally got to the store, I went inside and was greeted by nobody. There were 3 associates working in this small, quiet store and I walked around for a good 15 minutes without even being spoken to. No one asking if I was looking for anything, not even a hello. Thats just bad business. I was excited to buy some things for my desk but just left instead because I really didnt feel like giving any business to these guys. read more

Mantiques Modern - Inside - Antiques Near Me - New York, New York

omg! i wasn't the only one who was not greeted! it is a very long railroad style shop. it was last sunday afternoon as i walked in, i yelled out "hello" but no response. no one in sight. at the end of the road, there was a guy sitting behind the counter and he did not even looked up!!! awful!! no common courtesy, especially running a retail store!!! but they have cool stuff. read more

I take exception to the name of this place. Many of the items in this shop and their 1stdibs storefront look like they could have come out of my apartment or I could visualize them there in my minds eye. If my design aesthetic includes bold eclectic statements and natural and historic oddities, does that make me 'man'ly? I think not. I have to believe that just means we--- Mantiques Modern and I--- share good taste. read more

What a wonderful collection of beautiful things. I love the environment and all the amazing and more importantly UNIQUE items for sale. The luxury vintage collection of old home goods items was especially impressive. The staff was great, Cole helped us, he seemingly could call from memory obscure facts about every item. I 100% will go back, and you should too! read more

This owner is in serious need of an HR department to help him with his hiring. The staff go out of their way to be both rude and unwelcoming. Upon walking into the store, my girlfriend remarked at how handsome a man was standing at the other end of the store. This young man, indeed very handsome, turned out to be the sales associate. He was rude, arrogant and painfully insecure. After asking him the price of an item for the third time, he sighed, grunted and asked us if we could stop asking him for prices 'every five seconds'. I would rather follow a group of lemmings off the edge of a cliff than return to this store which is a shame because it's full of lovely things. read more

Amazing resource for any interior designer who needs toa tyke for turnkey delivery or photoshoots.

They quote wildly different prices for the same item to different people... and different in person than online. They don't have a price on any of their items - so that they can change the price to whatever they believe they can get away with to the person asking. Simply are not credible or honest in their dealings. Would find a more honest seller to buy antiques or any item from than these folks. read more

I went into the store three separate times to purchase gifts for housewarmings and a birthday, and was never greeted, asked if I needed help or even acknowledged. At one point I was looking at an item and wanted to know more but there are no prices on anything. Pretty merchandise but I will take my business elsewhere that has customer service and respect for their patrons. read more

Very cool store; one-off items and reasonable prices considering the rarity of most of them. Staff perfectly friendly, if engaged with, and very happy to have a chat or make recommendations. A treasure amongst a sea of ubiquity, worth a visit if you're in New York. read more

Mantiques is always an exploration adventure. Some of my favorite items were purhased there......

This "snooty" group of guys reneg on verbal agreements.........so get your quote in writing. If you want to talk to the boss.............you'll find him in Paris! read more

Yikes. Was really excited to check it out after walking by. Upon entering it was clear the place had a lot of unique items. Unfortunately everything went down hill after a brief interaction with the sales staff. I asked about one of the items and he curtly replied, "I don't know what you're talking about" without looking up from his computer screen. After a little more detail he said, "can you just show me?" and skulked out from behind his desk. After inquiring if there were any more items like that he just said, "no. Nothing. " I then pushed and said, "well anything in that genre?" --- clearly annoyed he started walking away and with his back to me yelled, " we have over 1,000 categories here you'll have to be more specific". Not helpful. Rude. Gross, miserable person. Sad that someone feels they need to treat other people like that. Especially paying customers. Yikes. read more

Wow... this store makes me motivated to make more money because the stuff is a) Awesome and b) Pricey! But a seriously amazing collection if you have the dough... or even a fun browse. read more

Interesting space to walk through. Many of the items seem to be handmade sculptures with an antique feel.
