Antiques in Hilo, HI

“Genuinely the nicest person I’ve ever met in my life. They gave me flowers and were so kind and inviting. I wish I could’ve stayed to talk to you longer as I loved your store and you as well!!”

“The owner was very knowledgeable about each of his pieces he's curated for his shop, from big furniture pieces to each single vinyl he handpicked from his explorations.

And throughout every corner you’ll discover some randomly distinctive knickknacks.A few things that caught my eye and sent me back were the collectable toys, coins, guitars, skateboards, furniture, kitchenware, glasses, and of course the vintage records. My personal favorite was a record of "Pink Floyd – The Dark Side of the Moon." As the nostalgia echoed memories from my past an hour maybe two flew bye, and yet I could have spent the rest of my afternoon there lost in time.The keeper of this treasure chest is Ray.
