Worth Galleries and Architectural Antiques

When I stepped over the threshold I felt like Harry Potter must have felt when he stepped into Diagon Alley. I was completely awed.
I am a lover of anything ancient, historical and pre-​loved and this warren of a warehouse is an absolute treasure trove. I could live here.
From the modest looking outside façade you would never know it deceivingly hides an enormous two tier warehouse, with all the merchandise set out in an almost Ikea floor plan (I shudder to even mention Ikea when I recollect on the stuff on offer here) At every turn there is something interesting, something novel, it’s a veritable museum in it’s own right. It is a truly amazing collection of exquisite pieces of furniture, chandeliers as far as the eye can behold, old books, musical instruments, oddities and even a backyard section of outside statues and conversation pieces.
The lady behind the counter was super sweet and conversational, telling me they have been in business there for 30 years, and there was no pressure to feel like you had to buy something. I agreed with her that you would really need to do two turns of the store, going left to right and then right to left because there was SO MUCH to see and even talking to her my eyes were straying to stuff I had not seen before hanging from the ceiling. The prices are not your thrift store variety, but the quality of the merchandise and the odds of ever finding a duplicate warrants the prices.
Truly an amazing Miami hidden gem,

I’m so glad that some reviews give this place only 1 star because it’s such an Aladdin’s cave of amazing treasures that I don’t want anyone else to get too excited about it! I have been relying on Architectural Antiques since first moving to the Grove in 1998. Between fabulous finds and wonderful inspiration, this place has made it possible for me to renovate my homes in an interesting, authentic way.

Terrible customer service. Very rude employees. be warned… it’s not the experience you expect in a high end store. 0 star rating if that’s possible

The collection of vintage and antique lighting here is really impressive, and the rest of the collection offers an eclectic mix of furniture, art, décor, and conversation pieces. Most items are early 20^th-​century pieces and older. Prices are reasonable, and you can also try to haggle a bit. Staff are helpful. I have bought a chandelier here, and later came back to see if I could by a base for a hanging lamp. The owner showed me a couple pieces; I not only found what I was looking for, but was able to arrange having my lamp wired to the base I’d just purchased. I like stopping by this store, and have recommended it to friends, too.

This place has terrible customer service. The owner was unresponsive to emails and severely low balled me on an offer. I literally laughed when I heard his price. Bottom line, this is not a good place for sellers and I’m willing to bet buyers are being overcharged as well.

Cool and fancy at the same time. Found beautiful antiques that were high end great quality, and awesome quirky nicknack’s, as well as very cool statues and sculptures. They have a little of everything, i spent over three hours looking around and found a couple things to take home, when i went back to pick up my stuff walked around and found things i didn’t see before and ended up buying more. If you get a chance to meet the owner, make time to talk to him personally, definitely a character. Loved my visit will definitely check in periodically, they get in merchandise daily as i was told.
