You can't always count on it being open exactly by the posted hours, but if you're near downtown Wakefield and it happens to be open, it's definitely worth your time to stop in. It's a small space but they use it well; there are knickknacks and cool antique pieces everywhere you look, and the owners are knowledgeable about what they sell and about the history of the town. This shop differs from other local antique shops in that it sells more small pieces and collectibles, rather than large pieces of expensive furniture and framed paintings. It's a much cozier and more welcoming feel than the showroom-style places nearby where you're scared to touch anything with a price tag on it. I collect vintage compacts and cosmetics and Un-Common Antiques has saved me a couple trips to Concord, as I can find the pieces I'm looking for here without the ridiculous markups and the long drive. read more

Fantastic little shop, especially if you like vintage jewelry--there are a ton of beautiful, unique pieces at very reasonable prices.

A charming store tucked away at the end of Main Street. The staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable, always willing to give some information about the item you are interested in. The store is filled with treasures and surprises, I've been there a few times and I am always finding something new. I cannot wait to go back. read more

Found this place by accident after visiting Zuzu's Cafe. Wow, what a surprise! It's a charming little shop and has great stuff. Especially liked the jewelry, but my friends found lots to interest them, too. Really nice staff. We definitely recommend it. (wish there were better parking in downtown Wakefield, though, but you can usually find parking on the side street.) read more
