We often have customers who come in wanting to redo an antique or Mid Century piece, but have yet to find the right candidate. One of the most exhilarating parts of redoing antique and vintage furniture is searching for and finding it. In response to the question we are asked so often, “Where do you find you furniture?,” here is a list of our favorite antique and vintage stores in Austin to search for your next treasure.
1. Corner Collector’s Market

Responsible for furnishing half of the furniture in my own home and many of the Spruce retail pieces, this store has everything from rustic, retro, and antique. You never know what you’ll find, the inventory is updated daily, and the prices can’t be beat. It’s also located a few doors down from Spruce!
2. Room Service Vintage

With two buildings and a courtyard full of furniture and housewares, this is your best bet for a refined selection of Mid Century Modern furniture ready to use in your home. Owner Jean Heath has an eye for handpicking a fantastic selection of vintage modern furniture, housewares and jewelry.
4. Austin Antique Mall
8822 McCann Drive

(512) 459-5900
This is the largest antique mall in Austin I’ve come across and has dozens of booths with something for every kind of collector. Although it has a great selection of furniture, my favorite finds are the quirky antique knick knacks and housewares. Set some time aside for this store. There’s a lot to digest!
