Calling all Vintage, Retro and Antique fans! This is the place to get your collectables in Belfast…read more You've probably seen all their larger items outside the shop on your way out of Belfast and said to yourself, 'I've got to go in there' but never got round to it. Set aside an afternoon and walk across Custom House Square to On The Square Emporium. This vintage shore/auction house has some of the most quirky stock you're likely to find anywhere. They have everything form a human skull to retro cameras! I spent around 40 minutes riffling through their various antiques and furniture items. The only ting I would say is that each item seemed quite expensive although you wouldn't expect anything different for collectables. Also make sure you ask the 'all in' cost of items as some have an added buyers premium - this will keep you right. I absolutely love this shop - more of a museum really without an entrance fee, if you're looking for a signature item of furniture for your home then pay The Emporium a visit.

Wow!! I love antique shops and always go in for a browse around at the old and the beautiful. The…read moreAntique Gallery is no exception! The pieces on show here are fantastic and although my budget rarely passes Ikea its still nice to come and see beautiful original pieces that don't come flat packed in a box. I must also point out that they also sell art, lavish mirrors and beautiful jewellery! If you're looking for a beautiful engagement ring with character and history do have a look as they really are beautiful! (not that I'm pining or anything...)

A shiny, exclusive antiques shop but nevertheless interesting to look at for the grand Georgian…read morefurniture and other 19th century items including tables, cabinets and mirrors displayed in a very pleasing way. This is the place for the serious money on a par with the best of the big London auction houses like Sotheby's or Bonham's - in fact one such catalogue was open with a picture of the same furniture item as was in the shop. They also provide a service for sourcing antiques for those in the running for that sort of thing, but not for those of us better suited to an occasional rummage at Ross's.

Oh heavens. I know nothing about antiques, and I think Mr Shop Owner knew that fine rightly…read more "Are you after anything in particular?", asks he. "Errr, not really", came my reply, "But [notices extreme deficit of anything not furniture related] you specialise in furniture?". A nod signified the affirmative, and I continued, "I'm looking more for decorative ornamental pieces..." Which is kinda true. I mean, I certainly don't need any furniture. Heavens, I could just imagine my mum's face when I tell her I've purchased an antique mahogany table, complete with four matching chairs... Having a look around, I discovered there was absolutely no way I could even begin to think about buying anything...this stuff was pricey! I informed Mr Shop Owner that I liked one of the clocks, to which smiled, picked up a business card, and went on my way. Now, I can't deny that my visit had been in complete vain. The address section on the business card read "96 Main Street, Moira, Co. Armagh". Well, I never. I was utterly convinced Moira was in Co. Down. What do you know?
