Best Kept Secret for Antiques on the West Coast:

by marsidotes

It is always a delight to go in Anthony's. It not only has amazing furniture and art but unique objects as well. I have found the staff to be both knowledgeable and willing to explain details about anything and everything. I have never felt the "stuffiness" that was mentioned in a previous review--nor have I ever felt pressured to buy anything.

Perhaps some shoppers want to be warmly greeted and engaged in bubbly conversation. Anthony is a very pleasant person who as a vast knowledge of the objects in the store but he is not an outgoing, loquacious individual. I personally prefer his style, where I can browse at my leisure but ask for help or direction whenever I want or need it.

I enjoy visiting the store--in much the way I love to go to a favorite museum, walking from room to room and floor to floor. It is even more of a delight since objects are available for purchase as well as mere enjoyment.

• Pros: Quality and value / Convenient Parking

I purchased several antiques from Tony when he just had a small shop on Broadway...I was young and learning but he was patient and respectful. I have lived and shopped in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New Orleans. Tony stands shoulder to shoulder with the best buyers in all those cities! What a wonderful thing to have him living here in SLC and I am glad I am back to take advantage of his great eye and expertise!

• Pros: Ambience, knowledgeable, trustworthy
• Cons: Busy with large clientele but worth the wait!

World class selection. I've shopped the world for 30 years. Their collection is eclectic, interesting with several important pieces. I found them to be very knowledgable and helpful. I highly recommend them.

Only drawback . . . I can't find a website for them? Help.

• Pros: Selection, quality, professionalism
