We went furniture shopping at about six stores near home in Annapolis, but with no luck. We found…read moreexactly what we were looking for this afternoon at Fox Run Antiques at Savage Mill. They have an interesting variety of good quality furniture pieces. We were looking for something to blend with some vintage family oak furniture, and found a pair of Ethan Allen end tables that were just the right dimensions. Paul Olson, the owner/dealer, was very nice and helpful. It was a successful trip and we also enjoyed lunch at Rams Head Tavern.

Not many locations with fine porcelain but Gardner Burke Antiques specialize in it. If you are around the area or willing to make the drive, you should. Also, I am one of their sons, so I am naturally biased. Check it out! Crystal, Limoges, Belleck, Moser, and more. Trinkets, Pitchers, Pots, Vases, and Lamps.

Wow! One of THE best thrift stores in Maryland. This place is run so efficiently. It's extremely…read moreorganized and the women running it keep it very neat and clean. Prices are super reasonable. Mostly everything is in good quality. I found some great vintage pieces --there's a huge selection of vintage if you're into that. They even have a full bridal section and special occasion dresses that were really pretty. I barely scratched the surface--a second visit is definitely in order. Highly recommend this location. They are so friendly and have amazing stuff!

One of many precious shops set in old Ellicott, this particular location -as one might guess from…read morethe name- is housed in an old bank. Originally built in 1906, the elegant little spot still has the rather charming bars on its windows and the enterprising owners have repurposed the delightful antique vault as the changing room. It's worth stepping inside just to get a look at the old vault door, carefully fixed open so you can see the mechanism and so that it can't close on a hapless shopper. The merchandise is a delightful mixture of true vintage and vintage style, with a matching range of prices so there's a bit of something for everyone. The second floor is the 'lavender shop' with soaps and so on, and a lot of handy but expendable gifting ideas. The third houses the art gallery, with some lovely pieces on view. Five minutes or fifty can easily be spent in the place, depending on if you'd like a quick peek or a lengthy perusal. I myself need to go back when I don't have an impatient sister in tow.

There actually are two stores here; one handles slightly more upscale items for around $25 each. Especially for people perhaps losing weight and in an intermediate size, the price is right! Sizes are marked but definitely try things on, as they can be mismarked. Plenty of changing rooms exist, the staff is helpful and on Saturdays, donations of clothing are accepted.
