Antiques and salvage shopping
For a great selection of antique furniture and all manner of collectibles, make a day trip to downtown Snohomish. In Seattle, you'll find rich clusters of antique stores around the Greenwood, Ballard and Pioneer Square neighborhoods, too.
Antique stores aren't the only places to find cool old things. Salvage stores are great bets for old porcelain sinks, lighting fixtures, stained-glass windows and bits of molding or iron gates saved from the wrecker or remodel.
24 Karat Antiques & Vintage Interiors

24 Karat is a design addict's dream come true. Can't make is to the flea markets of Paris? Then trust owner Brigham Wright's eagle eye for jaw-dropping furniture, lighting and accessories.
A.J. Smith and Co. Antiques
(Pioneer Square)
Looking for something a little zanier? Laugh over the vintage postcards and collectibles available here.
Antika
(Greenwood/Phinney Ridge)
This shop contains a wealth of carefully chosen European antiques and collectibles from the 1920s through the '50s, grouped sensibly so it's easy to compare style, quality and price.

A walk through this place is like a tour through America's collective consciousness for the past 100 years.
Gasoline Alley Antiques
