Antiques in Benicia, CA

“Stumbled upon this wonderful shop today and came out with so many prizes. The owner, who I now see is Cecilia, is an absolute darling, and super knowledgeable about her craft. She has an eye for design, in addition to having the expertise needed to ensure customers like me have a successful plant purchase. I fortunately commented to her that I've been struggling to come up with some garden decor ideas that incorporate my son's interests because it's been much easier to incorporate my daughter's interests (butterflies and the like). Cecilia eagerly pointed out various things in her store and the garden next-door, which is also hers. I was tickled to death to have her show me what is basically a little blue truck planter. My son loves the little blue truck books and cacti. So I enlisted her to apply her skills in designing a "little blue truck bouquet" for him. I was so happy with the outcome that I took a picture of her! Came away with some other wonderful treasures as well, including a little dinosaur planter for an air plant that blends into the dino spikes along the backside. I already told her that she's going to be seeing me again. I just love going into spaces like this and interacting with people like her. And her husband does engravings, some of which are in the store! He can engrave stainless steel, wood, stone, and similar materials. I'm still brainstorming what to request since she said he can do custom designs. But you know what? My favorite part about my visit was that Cecilia was not afraid to dive into the project. She busted out a drill and created a drainage hole in the truck planter on the spot before filling it with dirt and plants for my son. I dig that. Cecilia and her little shop totally made my day. Not to mention the awesome music in her store. I was rocking out the whole time. Congrats on making it seven years with your shop! You are clearly doing everything right! See you again soon.”

“Particularly procured, this store is a delight and a sunny spot In this wonderfully quirky town of Benicia, Ca. The store owner is very kind and knowledgeable. A dying breed, really. She is ready to help you find what you are looking for or even satisfy the curious with information or antidote about most of the items in the store. Worth a peek for those who can appreciate wonderful treasures of old.”

“Rarely write reviews but wanted to say that Teresa at Fabulous Finds was amazing when we were interested in a couch. She had a measuring tape at the ready, helpful tips, no pressure to buy, and when we purchased gave me the name of an amazing mover who was able to deliver to SF the next day! Extremely happy with my new couch and my experience at Fabulous Finds!”

“Great variety of finds here! Owners are very kind and humble. Only happened to stumble on this place when walking down the street and saw some books outside on a table. Glad I stopped in!”
