Antique & Art Exchange — Local services in San Francisco

This is my Go To place for art and antiques. It is my favorite source to spice up my table settings and my clients. I often buy different salad plates to create different looks while using the same dinner plates. It is like being in a magical room full of treasure. I find very unique and interesting pieces of art and antiques to bring life into a room. even if you think you do not like antiques, they are a source for finding beautifully made pieces and at prices cheaper than mass produced furniture. If you care about the planet, buy furniture already made. You will find woods that are not available anymore and with the patina in,y age can bring.

If they do not have a piece if furniture you are looking for in the store, they have great sources. I made a mistake buying an antique linen press from E bay, linen presses are great for storage of shoes, sweaters, handbags and hats. The big shelves pull out so your items can lie flat and are easily seen. The piece arrived with shelves and drawers that did not work, and it ended up costing much more than I paid.

Antique & Art Exchange is a wonderful source and you be able to see the desired pieces plus the owners are a great source of knowledge...

This is absolutely the best antique store in SF. The owners Keith and Howard are extremely knowledgeable about all types and periods of antiques from furniture to silver. They are very friendly and eager to share information with you. Not only are you surrounded by beautiful things but you get the history and background of each piece. Instead of going to a chain store for furnishings visit Antique and Art Exchange. You will find a treasure with a history rather than a mass produced item. Their collection is very diverse and has something for every room in your home. We purchased an absolutely beautiful early 19th century French farm table for our wine country home. It has a gorgeous patina and two draw leaves which extend to seat 14. And just recently Keith found us a Charles Hollis Jones lucite dining table from the '60's that seats 4 comfortably for our SF pied a terre. These are great examples of the breadth of their collection. And if they don’t have what you want (unlikely) they will research and find it for you. Highly recommend...

Great collection of Antique pieces in a Laid-back neighborhood (it's important because I feel that Antique is pure luxury and it has a strong connection with leisurely browsing). Loved talking about Indian culture with Howard. The owners are very accommodating (when I called before my visit about their store hours, they said they can wait bit longer for me!!!! Just wow!). Then I landed at the store (on time though) , fell in love with this 19th Century Garuda Figurine, expressed my love for it and Howard gave me a much better price. Thank you so much. Now it's in my entryway and can't take my eyes off. My husband is like, let's have a drink at the garden and I'm like, no I wanna drink sitting here looking at my first ever collected real antique! I'm a novice in the Antique world, but this store definitely catapulted me to a better one - a must visit for...
