Pasadena Antique Center - Antiques Near Me - Pasadena, California

Very decent antique mall! It's quite large with tons of booths filling up two stories - I spent the better part of an hour here just lightly browsing and feel like I could've staying longer. It's also very clean and organized well - easy to peruse! I've been on the hunt for an antique filing cabinet for years and thought I'd been to every antique mall in the area but I was wrong haha! I didn't find one here so my search goes on arggghhh!! But I'm so glad I came - they have a TON of Tiffany style lamps that I also have on my wish list! And they even have a real Tiffany lamp that's actually signed and it's behind locked glass (it's $22,000 lol) - that's the first real one I've seen in an antique store - they're usually just the "Tiffany style". You usually only find a couple in the stores but there's so many here! And I saw a few that I really liked so I'll definitely be back to investigate further I'm sure lol. All the staff were very welcoming and eager to assist - you could tell they love to talk about their items and are happy to be there! They do have quite a few genuine antiques - a lot from the 19th century but I even saw a piece or two from the 17th and 18th centuries!! And they have a ton of mid century modern stuff. My only complaint is that the prices on a lot of the items are pretty expensive- definitely a lot higher than all the other antique malls I've been to in SoCal. And some of the pricey items weren't in good condition. So just be aware and do your homework. This is why I walked out empty handed - gotta do some research before I drop that kinda cash :/ It's very easy to find - right off Fair Oaks in Pasadena. There's some street parking but it's a very busy area so I would be nervous to park on the street - tons of crazy traffic. They have a private lot to the side with its own entrance. read more

Pasadena Antique Center - Antiques Near Me - Pasadena, California

I've been visiting this antique center for about 25 years. I haven't been for a really long time so I thought I would check in since I was in the neighborhood. There's still plenty of great treasures but the place has become decidedly run down. Some of the "shops" look like they are just junkyard/storage for the dealers...and there's no effort to make the objects appealing or even viewable. I found it somewhat dangerous navigating around things that are haphazardly "placed" in the spaces, and this was in numerous spaces, not just a handful. I understand that this is a co-op but if I were a antique seller at this location I would be considering relocating. read more

Probably the most bountiful and expansive antique mall in our Pasadena/San Gabriel valley at least. Beautiful or artfully ugly wares, take your pick because it's all here. Some of our favorite dealers reside in this seek and find labyrinth of treasures, everyone exceptionally supportive of one another, that's for sure. If you can't find one thing to leave with, you haven't been a lookie loo long enough; today treated myself - it is my birthday - to an Italian country cookbook and a tiny vase. Love the eclectic sensibility here- truly something for everyone and whatever floats your boat, you'll find it in here as you meander through all the tiny passages and hallways! read more

Decent mix of items, but I feel like the prices are high across the board. Everything I liked seemed to be priced at 50-100% more than I'd want to pay. read more

Selection of all periods for sale. Beautiful booths. Helpful team of workers and dealers. Entire area filled with walking antiques and collectibles for sale. From thrift stores, antique malls and independent antique stores. Fun area to shop and old town Pasadena not far!! read more

I left a one-star review six months ago due to an expensive pearl ring that cracked. After calling multiple times - the receptionist became increasingly rude and the dealer never called me. Fast forward six months and the manager, Alex, reached out and was very gracious. I returned the ring to him. He issued a full refund and will address the dealer. His customer service was impeccable. So much so, that I will return to PAD when I'm in beautiful Pasadena again. Thank you Alex! read more

I decided not to gatekeep, this spot is amazing it has the most frustratingly awesome selection of broaches. I get so frustrated because I want to buy every single one!!! The cufflinks, tie clips, and general accessories are the best and most reliable that I've seen when antique shopping. I love this place and keep coming back to see if there are new items and if anything I've had on my mind is left. The pricing is good too! Haven't found anything I liked that seemed out of bounds and too expensive. A gem of a store! read more

Extremely overpriced! Wife and I came in to look at comic books and books. As I was looking at their selection which is sprinkled all throughout the store I noticed the prices were out of control. Something that is typically .50 cents or $1 was $30 to $40 here! I almost thought it must be wrong, but nope! read more

The biggest, best and highest quality antique center I've ever been in! Plus, parking is ample and free in the adjacent lot. These antiques are in a class of their own and shopping them will make you feel like royalty. Each item is one of a kind and there is such a dazzling array of treasures that it was overwhelming at first. Be prepared to spend an hour or more if you wish to peruse both floors in detail. The prices are fair given that they are truly unique representations of history from all over the world. Many vendors were present to assist and all were kind and courteous. I will return many times to this feast for the senses. read more

Wonderful service They bought my great aunts ashes from me for 20 bucks. Apparently the urn was worth something , they also gave me a separate amount of money for her gold tooth from her ashes ! read more

Be forewarned... this is not a typical antique store, but a massive - as in multistory, get lost for a long time - warehouse antique store. If I understood correctly, various dealers have rooms and spaces under the same roof. I saw everything from jewelry to knick knacks to giant home decor - beds, closets, chandeliers, etc. Came here to show a friend who enjoys antique shopping, and the enormity of this place was surprising. It reminded me of Powell bookstore in Portland, except that here, I wasn't expecting so much from the exterior. Minus 1 star for the lack of organization and the high prices. I would recommend categorizing the place, no idea how exactly, but something according to design style, time period... anything. There randomness everywhere, both good and meh! Ideal customers are those with an open mind, with time to kill, and who possess a high credit card limit. I heard someone say the sticker prices may be negotiated though. So if you are any or all of these, this store/warehouse is for you! read more

My fiancé and I came here a couple of times this week and it didn't disappoint either time. The first time we stopped in, we found a bunch of antique bottles we plan to use as wedding decor for a really great deal! Several vendors had sales going on when we stopped in, so that was a lucky find. The staff and vendors greeted us and made sure we knew they were available if we needed any help. They were all very kind and friendly. One guy was so helpful getting the bottles off a high shelf for us and packing them up. And then the woman who checked us out was so sweet as well! We came back today because I had an appointment to try on wedding dresses at one of the booths, Cream & Ivory. Let me tell you, I have scoured the internet for vintage wedding dresses, and I was very impressed with the selection here. I would have been happy with several of the dresses I tried on to be honest, but I did find the perfect one I was looking for! Morgan, the owner of this booth, was so kind, patient, and helpful with getting me in and out of some of the dresses. (FYI: there's a little dressing area with a curtain in the corner to change, but you'll need to make an appointment with Morgan to try on the dresses, as some can be understandably delicate and she can help you carefully change into them.) As someone that feels uncomfortable and out of place in a traditional bridal shop, it was a lot of fun to try stuff on here and felt very relaxed and chill. Morgan is really cool and easy to talk to. She also gave me helpful and honest feedback and wasn't pushy or pressuring in any way, quite the opposite actually. The prices are beyond reasonable, which is so refreshing both in this economy and in the wedding industry. I love that it's important to Morgan to keep some cool vintage wedding gowns accessible in a city like LA. I'm in love with the dress I went home with today and really enjoyed my whole experience! Thank you Morgan, wishing you lots of success with your shop! read more

Such a big place. They have a lot of antiques in great condition. People are very helpful there. Enjoyed looking at all the antiques.

We have been antiquing for quite a while and been to a lot of different antique malls but regrettably we had a very unpleasant feeling this time at Pasadena Antique Center and Annex. We brought three items to cashier.  First item ran smoothly.  The second item we picked was at the station which had a giant 50% off sign; however, when the cashier lady was writing the receipt we noticed that she only put 20% off so we immediately inquired her about that.  She told us that item was 20% off.  She said, yes it is confusing because the seller has two different codes, one for 50% off and the other for 20% off.  And the item we picked was 20% off.  Since my husband really liked the item so we bought it anyway.  The third item was a ceramic jewelry box with a stand as a set.  There is also another set like this next to it.  The cashier lady kept telling us they are two separate items.  The funny thing is there's only one price tag.  She insisted the ceramic jewelry box and the stand are two separate items and must be paid that way.  She wanted to contact the seller and get back to us.  We said that's fine.  We told both of the cashier ladies that my husband actually was interested in the stand, not much the box.  Next day we got a call from them and the seller wanted $12 for that stand only.  In comparison, we have been to Pasadena Antique Mall for several times and we really love that place.  Over there my husband found a similar set as mentioned above and actually liked the stand.  Pasadena Antique Mall insisted it's a set with one price tag.  If we buy it we must get the vase. On the other hand, Pasadena Antique Center and Annex insisted the ceramic and the stand are two separate items even though there's only one price tag.  They made us feel we're lying and stealing which left a really unpleasant feeling for us.  Neither do we like the way how they mislead customers to think all items at a particular station were 50% off.  If we hadn't looked at the receipt while it was being written down, we would not have found out till we got home.  We have been to so many different antique malls all over southern California, this is the first.  Sorry to say we will not return to this place and will not recommend this place to our family and friends.  And please look closely when your receipt is being written down and make sure if what you get is a set or separate items even with one price tag and displayed that way. read more

Such a fun way to spend an hour or two in Pasadena! With the epic Rose Bowl flea and a ton of antique and thrift shops, there is really no shortage of treasure hunting in this neck of the woods. I checked out Pasadena Antique Center this past Saturday not quite know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised and he added this to my rotation of spots to shop in the the area. Most (all?) items here are sold in booths by individual vendors, so the selection and prices vary throughout the store. I was pleased to find that prices weren't totally outrageous--this is definitely a place you could score some cool items, even if you're ballin on a budget. Some booths have sales as well, so keep and eye out for those! I scored a cool 70's brass lobster that's now one of my favorite conversation pieces. Parking was easy and free and if you're in the mood to thrift, there's a Goodwill and Salvation Army super close by. There are clean restrooms here and the staff was friendly and helpful. 100% worth a visit! read more

I wandered into this amazing store after brunch today. What a gem !!!! First of all it's massive so I'll have to go back again. The staff was really attentive and helpful, able to answer all my questions and point me in the right direction. It's a treasure trove honestly and it helped a novice like myself that the staff could help me figure out what I needed. Can't wait to go back! read more

Incredibly overpriced. It seems like they didn't know what the actual value of most of their items are so they just guessed. Seems pretty dishonest to me. read more

This is an awesome store. Be prepared to roam around for a while - it's huge! There are so many treasures that await you. I bought two nineteenth-century books & a vintage t-shirt. The employees are really kind & helpful and there are bathrooms inside. read more

Incredible high quality antiques throughout the store. Lots of furniture and art. There are some vintage clothes, but mostly furniture. Prices are marked clearly. Staff are friendly. Two hour free street parking in front. Air conditioned with some fans make it nice to browse. read more

I love this place! It's filled with the best treasures. Not only can I browse an amazing inventory of the the most rare and unique objects, I get to interact with the store owners and who have been nothing but professional and knowledgable. I often wonder why people shop at retail chains when they can find one of a kind gifts, so personalized, at a location like this. The Pasadena Antique Center is a true gem as far as I'm concerned. Oh, and if you're into Tiffany, be sure to check out the Tiffany chandelier! Absolutely stunning!!!! read more

Amazing variety of antiques. Can spent hours at this place and everything is so unique.

I visited this store last weekend and had a wonderful time. I was blown away not only by how much beautiful history was in that building, but by how friendly each person was who I came into contact with. I was greeted immediately upon entering, and several people offered to answer questions about items or simply to offer up stories about unique pieces. I particularly loved the variety of vintage clothing in the upper level of the store. read more

Went to this place recently and was amazed at the variety of antiques, and glassware I was able to find. If you're looking for unique or retro furniture or art, I'd start here. There is some stuff that dates back a few decades in there and a lot of variety! This place is so massive! read more

Great shop to visit to see products and art of days past. If your a collector you may find items to add to your hobby. It's a thoroughly enjoyable shop to visit. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face at least once while you peruse the selections. read more

My wife and I came into Pasadena Antique center to purchase a $1,200 chandelier from a space down stairs. We had shopped around and finally decided to purchase it. Across the isle and over one space we were greeted with a bowl full of carved wooden ERECT PENISES. It was so offensive that we just left. We have been one of your customers for many years as a matter of fact we have bought many pieces of art and furnishing from the antique center. But really!!! 15 to 18 inch long carved ERECT PENISES in a store that is supposed to be safe for me to bring my wife and granddaughter for Christmas shopping??? We walked out hoping that some dealer there would say, "get this porno crap out of my store, YOU ARE HURTING MY SALES!!!" I can promise you that at least one dealer across the isle lost a sizable sale. I did call later to express my disgust but when I went back 4 days later the same bowl of ERECT PENISES was still there. AND I walked out again without the purchase. I am very disappointed that the Antique Center would allow something in such poor taste to be displayed. In my opinion it's not just poor taste it is low class and shouldn't be in a store that we formerly believed to be a classy establishment. I see other reviewers write about "feeling like royalty" and a "classy, quality place", that is what we thought until our last couple of visits. I am surprised that a dealer has not filed a law suite against the Center for sexual harassment because this is demeaning for many women and it could fit into sexual harassment . Any business owner or office manager who has been required to give government required business classes on HARASSMENT AND SENSITIVITY knows that this could easily fall into a law suite. I am sorry that some dealer thought it would be cute to display erect penises. It is not art and should not be in such a store as the Antique Center. I am sorry that the management would allow such offensive products to be on display for my granddaughter and other granddaughters to have to that pictured in their little minds. "What's this Grandpa?" NO, it is not worth me taking that chance. The only vote I have is my absence from your store and when friends ask "Where did you get that lamp, that picture or that chair?" Well.... PICTURES OF YOUR DISPLAY UPON REQUEST. A former customer Larry Kapchinksy read more

Marvelous browsing center! Thousands of wonderful things to look at and staff who are friendly & helpful. Love visiting the Center!

One of my favorite places to shop. Each dealer has a unique collection and the annex has a ton of fun retro pieces. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful! read more

I give this antique center 3-stars based on the type of antiques they carried. Maybe it was the fact that there was nothing to my liking, or that I'm used to much larger and assorted antique stores. But nevertheless, antique browsing is always fun, so take a stroll through, you may find a treasure worth buying. read more

They have a vendor named Leah; she is one step away from a con artist. She sold me a painting (depicting an empty crib and a mourning dog) for $1500.00, telling me its history and how it depicted something common at the turn of the century, that the woman artist or a friend likely lost a child, etc... After I brought it home, a friend who is knowledgeable in art said it was a reproduction of an earlier painting, not an original at all. When I brought it proof, she said, "I never said it was original." She then said to give it back to her and, if she can resell it, she would give me a portion of what she could get for it. Stay away from her section of the Center. read more

I have been coming here for at least 15 years. I love to browse through the ever changing spaces. Several new people in the place now and some if my favorites are gone.

I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley, love antiques & vintage, and I can't believe that I just stumbled into this place last month. It's wonderful! And I don't think it's overpriced, at all. I purchased a great end table, a cool mirror for my bedroom and an entry table and all of them were in mint condition and really affordable. I am by no means rich, just someone who loves eclectic style and can't stand an apartment covered in Ikea and Urban Home stuff. So coming here, I've been able to add a little character to my apartment with unique pieces. Each vendor was flexible on price and I got discounts on everything I purchased. Honestly, everyone here is really friendly, personal and they want to work with you on price, which is all I look for when I'm out antiquing. Will be back, often! read more

Apparently I "checked in" at the annex rather than the main place. This place is huuuuuge. Two floors. Be careful on some of the stair wells because they are big steep stairs. There are probably three dozen or more separate rooms with all kinds of furniture and house/home decorations. This isn't a "typical" mom and pop antiquing place, it's a home decorating type of antiquing place, which being fairly new to this, didn't realize there was a huge difference. There are tons of the small nick nack antiques, but this place is really for filling out your home with over priced, hey look at my fancy vase/statue type things. Not hating, just what it is to me. And the smaller stuff I would be interested in are priced full retail, so not many deals that I could find. Still a nice big place to spend some time in and check out. read more

The customer service is awful. Specifically, the two women working at the front desk are unfriendly and very short and demeaning in their speech. Not only were they unwilling or unable to answer my questions, they were talking down to me as I was making personal decisions on certain items. Their tone of voice and demeanor is not what a customer would expect from a store. I was chatting with another customer and she agreed with me as well. I would say that the front desk workers are driving away some customers. I've been shopping a lot of vintage lately and have been to most antique stores in the vicinity. I know what's out there. Annex, I hope your customer service improves. read more

What an array of collectibles, wonderful gift ideas, or just decorating your house and adding unique items. Beautiful paintings reputable dealers and loads of help.
