Beautiful store, one of a kind timepieces, and a lot of unique art that represents important historical eras. My favorites were the marble clocks and their matching sets. It was epic to witness. I've only ever seen items like this at the Getty. This is definitely a place you have to check out and plan to purchase from. I believe the pricing is fair because these are antiques that are made from scratch-- I mean everything is hand crafted. When you see something this nice, you would never want anyone to have a duplicate of it. It's so classy and the staff were incredibly kind. I believe this place is family-run, and it shows in how thoughtfully it's maintained. It felt inclusive and welcoming. Appointments are highly recommended, and this is not a space for children. I noticed they allow calm, well-behaved pets on leash or harness for private parties, which I appreciated. I first visited at 7 AM when they were closed just to admire the exterior, then came back around 12:30 PM to take it all in with better light. I fell in love with so many pieces and will absolutely be back once I have a home closer up north. This store is timeless beauty preserved and presented at its finest. read more

This locations has some amazing pieces. The staff are attentive and it is always a treat to visit! I was able to schedule an appointment to come in and browse by calling the store. They have a variety of items from clocks to watches and art. Their prices are high but the pieces are beautiful! read more

We stumbled in here after exploring parts of Solvang. This place is owned by the sweetest couple. They were so nice and helpful when we were looking around. They had a lovely selection of jewelry and other antiques. The prices were not too bad. There was a lovely music box and the owner noticed us looking at it and she went ahead offered to crank it for us. A lot of their selections are available online too, so I highly recommend looking on their website. read more

I came to this place over two years ago. This is a very cool and unique store. With plenty of antiques to choose from. It's like stepping into a time machine and going back into the past. The grandfather clocks and other antiques were very cool to see. The artistry and craftsmanship done to these pieces are amazing. The staff were very friendly and funny. Highly recommend this place. read more

Surprisingly huge store that extends back into the block where it features a gallery area. We really enjoyed the quality of the antiques, and in particular the paintings and prints. The hand blown art glass in the back gallery area was stunning and affordably priced. All the items appear to be in excellent shape, and beautiful representations of their kind, as the name of the store implies. read more

We stumbled upon this antique store by accident. Walking around Solvang, my companion and I decided to check the placed out. Actually my companion did, I didn't want to be looking at old stuff. -___- Anyway, I'm glad I went in! From the outside, this store seems like a tiny place, but once you're inside it goes on for ages. There's three levels to this store and each level was super cool. There is tons of high value antique items here. It's almost like a history museum / store. Forget the history museum and check out the Antique Center. While I was in there, I saw very expensive antiques for sale. They have many grandfather clocks from all kinds of time periods.. 1800s, 1900s, all time periods! There was old jukeboxes, cabinets, mirrors, everything. I even spotted a grandfather clock for $250,000 plus. While I held it in my hands, I exclaimed, "I'm holding the cost of a condo in my hands" These guys are moving now to a smaller store but check out Solvang Antique Center if you're there. The reason why they're moving is because the owners of the building told them they were going to cut the store in half! Because of that, they decided to just move to a better location... smaller but newer. They already take care of all the upkeep of the store they might as well. Don't worry they'll still have all their stuff... the store has two warehouses to keep antiques in. read more

*Beware Customers* Solvang Antiques sells counterfeit/fake items I walked into their store and selected 2 beautiful watches that I wanted to purchase. One was a vintage Breitling Chronograph pictured above. They were selling this as an all original authentic Breitling watch. I was excited to make the purchase but wanted some second opinions so I took the details of the worker there and asked for pictures via email. Fortunately, I was able to get in touch with a vintage Breitling expert that very weekend who told me that the watch was a fake/counterfeit and I should report the business immediately. Needless to say this saved me thousands of dollars. I contacted the employees immediately and knowing that I had proof from an expert they had to acknowledge that the watch was a fake . Their justification for the incident was that the watch was acquired a few years ago and they thought it was authentic at the time. Well, with that line of reasoning everything in their store has about a 50-50 chance of being authentic. I believe they expect their customers to do heavy due diligence with a domain expert before purchasing any of their items. So if you are a customer at the store make sure to do so if you don't want to get scammed out of your money. P.S: For the second watch that I liked. On closer examination I found out that the chrono functions weren't working. I wouldn't be surprised if that was a fake too. read more

Solvang Antiques - Fake Breitling being sold for thousands of dollars. - Antiques Near Me - Solvang, California

Beautiful shop, chockful of treasure, the sort of place you'll get lost in, fantasizing about yesteryear. They have loads of assorted and sundry items ... the best thing is t go with no goal and no must have item. Let yourself be drawn into another era--the 6 of us felt free to pick up items and caress them. The prices are on the items, so you don't have to go running up to the front for every little thing. There's a sense of charm and wonder ... the owners are friendly, warm, welcoming. A fantastic find, perfectly tucked away in the town that beckons items of the past. read more

Best little antique shop in the world. Filled with clocks and coins and much more. Anyone would love this store so come as quick as you can! read more

Everyone is so nice and helpful. Beautiful things throughout.... A definite destination while shopping in Solvang. read more

Went to both the old location and the new store at 1693 Copenhagen Dr, during a recent visit. Love the selection and the knowledgeable staff. Feels like a museum, where you can buy anything you love. Furniture, paintings, jewelry and select collectables. The variety and quality of the items are second to none. This being antiques, the price tag is for the serious collectors. The old location on 486 First Street have some good deals to make it worthwhile. The new store is priced like a museum, where it's look and don't touch! read more

This is one of my two "go-to" places in Solvang. If you have a love of antiques, especially clocks, old telephones, fountain pens, and antiques in general (including estate jewelry) this is the place to visit. Yes, some of the pieces are very prices. There are one-of-a-kind (and restored) Grandfather Clocks, and other items. The staff (I have to particularly recommend Michael) is knowledgeable and generally know the back-story of an antique they are selling. Even if you aren't buying, their store is a small museum! read more

They have some really great finds and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about their inventory. read more

Although our visit didn't end with a purchase, we loves the service and selection here. We are looking for an antique engagement ring and their selection is large and reasonably priced. They have a wide range of prices. We looked at several rings and Michael was very patient and helpful. We are sure to return. read more

this is quite possibly the finest antique store i have ever visited. it is majestic in its collection of beautifully grand clocks, furniture, pianos, phonographs and collectible items from the late 1800's and late 1900's. it is a virtual time capsule. the only problem with stepping into a store like this is that since everything is high quality and very well preserved, which of course, it is a huge plus for an antique store, the price tags for everything, and i mean, everything in the store can run from 1,000 to a quarter of a million, easily and as you step into the store and realize the sort of items they have it is understandable why that is that case. i recommend stepping into the store even if you don't have the disposable income. you can spend an hour easy ruminating throughout the store and wondering the history of many of the items on display. it is a very fascinating store with a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. read more

I must give five stars to this wonderful store not only have I found some of the most beautiful jewelry, but the staff makes me feel like I'm the most important person when I walk thru that door and that's why I keep coming back. I would highly recommend this beautiful store to all passing thru solvang. read more

Good selection. Great location. Competitive prices. Excellent customer service. We bought a shriner ring from 1960 & heard the history of it (no name of previous owner due to privacy). read more

Lovely antique store with LOTS of beautiful items to choose from. Last week I purchased a beautiful French antique mantel clock and some other items for my new residence. The staff is very helpful, polite and professional and that includes the owner, who I happened to meet while there. I will continue to shop this store in the future. Robert Luppi read more

Wowsers! I am sometimes bored with antique shops... but I left this one with a big smile on my face and talking about it all the way back to Santa Barbara! The staff was very friendly and personable even though we definitely couldn't afford anything there! Such beautiful pieces though, clocks, furniture, jewelry.... the woman on the staff (should have gotten her name) even played one of the old music boxes for us she called our "modern CD"... WOW that was the most magical sound I have heard in my entire life. I'm 29 and own an ipod but I would trade it in to get one of these in my house... it was sooooo awesome and I thought that was very sweet of the staff to crank one of the "cd's" on to play for us... I felt like dancing! read more

Yes, This store is amazing in the sense of the contents of the store. However the staff was not welcoming. We had a lady follow us around the store, but never even offered us help. It was so uncomfortable. We left without buying anything and with that kind of service, I would not give them one cent. Over all Solvang is a place i would visit again just not this store. read more

This is such a magnificent and luxurious antique store. I felt as though I was in a museum. Some of the items in this store I have never seen! I thought the music boxes were extraordinary and I especially loved the Thomas Edison Phonograph. So cool!! I think everything is merchandised with such care and there is not a drop of dust in this store, it is immaculate. The pieces can range from hundreds of years old to recently in our century and everything is in pristine condition. My boyfriend is currently purchasing our engagement ring there and it is gorgeous! I cannot wait to wear my 1925 antique ring from Solvang Antiques! read more

Most beautiful antique shop I've been to in California. Clean, organized, and stuffed with beautiful objects. Felt like I was in New Orleans - this store is amazing and very very VERY organized. read more

Very cute shop. They have jewlery, wine accessories, and a clothing appereal upstairs. A fun shop to get a gift for someone

I love antique shops! This was by far the most amazing shop I have ever been in. It almost felt like a museum of incredible objects. Although most items are not within a normal persons budget, it is still great fun to look at all the jewelry, clocks and music boxes. I highly recommend this place for at least a visit. read more

Great Inventory of Grandfather Clocks, Pocket Watches, Antiques, and all the music boxes!!! The store is clean and sophisticated and if I had a few grand or 20, boy would I splurge here! read more

My favorite place to visit and the only store that is truly a must visit is Solvang Antiques! It is a feast for the eyes (and sometimes the wallet, but so worth it!). They carry unique items from the two figure to the five figure range. The estate jewelry is incomparable. I bought the most beautiful ring -Veda was a huge help! All the sales staff are very nice. It's a pleasure to shop there! read more

I had a great experience here. My fiance and I were looking for an engagement ring from the 1930s era (I love that style). We had a lower budget than most antique jewelry stores could probably have worked with. Kathy was AMAZING! She really listened to us and was the opposite of judgmental of our low budget...instead she was patient, kind, and helpful. We ended up walking out with a ring I will love forever and ever. Thank you! read more

nice collection, got a few nice finds. more of a high end collection than your normal antique shops, mostly in hundreds to thousands and more read more
