Old Town Antiques is an eclectic shop located in historic Old Town in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As much museum as retail store, we “recycle history.” Browsers are welcome and questions are encouraged. Although we carry much more than Native American items, we also try to provide information for anyone interested in learning about or acquiring good quality Native American objects. Come in to the Shop or click on the Turquoise tab on the left to see our examples of “real” versus “fake” turquoise and other stones and, learn the difference between “Indian hand made” and “Indian hand crafted.”
Use our “Search” option to find specific items.
In addition to classic and collector quality antiques, the collection currently includes (but certainly is not limited to!):
- Antique Native American Indian art
- Folk art
- Jewelry ranging from Victorian to ethnic and tribal including pawn
- Pottery and Baskets, Native American and others
- Fred Harvey and Railroad
- Western and Southwestern relics
- Vintage photography
- Devotional art including retablos, bultos and ex-votos
- Antique art
- Early science
- Books
- Interesting things that refuse to fit in a particular category
Dealers, designers and decorators are welcome. Layaway and gift certificates available. And, we’re handicapped accessible – just give us a call if you need the ramp.
