Antiques in Castro Valley, CA

“I find it so depressing to shop for furniture today and see all of the mass produced stuff that is out there. I could not be happier with the little vintage piece that Micaiah transformed for me. I found it in thrift shop, provided a picture for inspiration and it came out beautifully!”

“The gentleman who owns the store was very kind and helpful. I love their huge selection of matches, It brought back memories of places I used to go to as a kid. It was hard to decide what vintage knife I wanted because they were all so cool but I settled on a beautiful pearl pocket knife. It feels like you go back in time when you enter and are greeted with warm smiles.”

“Artisan Place is an odd name for a "gift" store. Since it's has 10 owners who are artisans & 40 vendors showcasing here, the name is appropriate. Motto: housemade, vintage(antiques), confections.. Prices posted are from the vendors, artisans. Value is in the eye of the buyer. Offerings: greeting cards, artifacts, jewelry, candy, jams, clothing, artisan seasonal decor, face masks, gift boxes, ceramics, glassware, accessories....many pics posted by Owners of goods.

Curious about taste since toffee usually is a solid bar not a cookie -made in home kitchen. Very sweet. Sugar, butter, palm oil top 3 ingredient. Many others -doubtful repeat. Not healthy. Staying with regular toffe. 4.5 stars. aisles narrow. Items stacked tight. Everything labeled. Didn't touch anything. Lots of items would make great gifts.. *items displayed randomly. Some have placards naming vendor, artists. Some didn't have..”
