This place has to be the queen of antique malls, and I've been to a number of them. It is truly…read morevast and contains a very wide variety of artifacts from a) a very wide range of countries and b) a fairly wide variety of time periods. You can easily spend a couple hours in here. Victorian china and silverware? Check. Scandinavian ceramics? Check. Southeast Asian statues? Check. This is a place where it really pays to look carefully. There jewelry collection is pretty substantial and has a wide variety of pieces. I had one find that blew me away: an Ancient Roman bronze belt buckle that had been turned into a pendant. Circa 100 CE. Pretty sure it was the oldest thing in the building, but I can't be absolutely sure. The employees were delightful to talk to and were very helpful on getting prices and showing me things in display cases. I got into a long conversation with an art historian over the aforementioned belt buckle. Prices range. I bought a pair of beautiful pillows for under 35 dollars. But there are some pieces here that are either so rare, unusual or simply intrinsically valuable that they are going to be an investment. This is by no means a thrift-store. Will definitely return.

It's a huge 16,000-square-foot space full of some modern, mostly vintage and some antique home goods, books and accessories. Important to know going in - This isn't Goodwill, it's more high end second hand shopping in Venice! However it's not as high end as a gallery and has no pretentious vibes. It feels comfortable walking around to scope things out. They have their own small parking lot but it fills up quickly and then cars camp for spots on the weekends. I've found that the earlier you go, the better. They have really cool pieces, unique items and everyone I encountered was friendly and eager to assist. They say they have 100 dealers there! The space is well organized so you don't feel claustrophobic despite being surrounded by stuff. Very cool space I'll be back to! They also list items on ebay!

Everybody has quality merchandise that is genuinely of aesthetic value. Unlike some flea markets that have a lot of junk.

Don't ask me how but magic happens at the end of the day.;)

It's $25 to sell at this market so prices are lower than most markets. Free parking in back and on the streets. I have found rare records for cheap, trench art, old postcards, lots of very unique and cool stuff for a fraction of the price as Rose Bowl, Melrose, Long Beach or PCC. I actually don't like Melrose because entry fee and how much of a fashion show it is. Proceeds benefit the Venice Gondolier Booster Club. Venice HS was also where the movie Grease was filmed!

I met with one of the owners, and she was such a delight. I can't remember for the life of me who the shop associate was, but he was super helpful as well. I could literally spend all day looking at records here. I can tell that my bf was getting impatient but I picked up some amazing records from Little Richard, Aretha Franklin, James Brown and the Temptations. I can't wait to come back and dive back in because it forced me to purchase a record player which is my favorite toy at the moment.

Don't let bad reviews scare you away from this quaint little shop in Venice…read more I stumbled upon the store while walking around Venice looking for holiday gifts for family. This was a rare case where my wife and I bought products and then went to yelp afterwards to read a review on how helpful and knowledgeable the staff was, but I read several reviews talking about how rude the customer service was. I couldn't have had a more opposite experience. All of the inventory they hold is so unique and I haven't seen it anywhere else. I had several questions about the glass and drinkware, and we ended up buying a whole wine glass set made from reclaimed glass (how cool?!). Prices on some items are pretty high, but there are great fines for affordable prices within the store. The staff was super helpful, and I met the French owner who checked us out, and she was very lovely. We are going to go back for stocking stuffers!

But on my way back from the beach, I noticed there were people that inside and boy was I surprised by the many items that were on display. I believe a lot of the items are rented out for props but there are also items that can be purchased as well. It was a cool, unexpected find and can't wait to bring my hubby here one of these days.

The charming and gregarious owner claims that many of her props were used in the film Oppenheimer.

We decided to pop into Timeless Treasures after lunch to browse, and unfortunately the experience…read morewas a bit of a letdown. The shop has a lot of small decorative items and vintage-style trinkets, but many of them felt significantly overpriced for what they were. A lot of the pieces looked similar to items you can find at places like BTS, The Council, or Out of the Closet--just with a much steeper markup here. Because of that, it was hard to justify actually buying anything. That said, it's still a fun spot to wander through if you enjoy browsing eclectic knickknacks and vintage-style decor. It's good for a quick peruse, but personally I wouldn't plan on spending much money here.
