“Went to malden shop, very helpful staff, lots of interesting stuff as seen on Chronicle. Tried a lovely fur coat, fit like it was made for me. HAD TO GET IT! It's ok real fur, animal was taken long time ago. Don't buy newer fur, we know better now.”
“Tom always has a beautiful and generous inventory. I like both his eccentricity and that of his lighting. His pricing is very reasonable. He is trustworthy. And, he has a great sense of humor! JH”
“As a former client of Annette Hannon/'As Tyme Goes Bye', I cannot sing her praises loud enough after the great work she has done for my late mother and my family in Belmont over the last decade+, during which time she accomplished that which I thought at the time, was well neigh impossible, in organizing, evaluating and disposing of in a positive fashion, three generations of my family's accumulated Irish- Americana and myriad collections, through successful yard sales, her own shop, and well-focused donations. Neither the scale, level of disorganization, nor huge quantity of my late mother's various collections phased Annette in the least, to my everlasting positive regard. Annette and her assistants are hardworking, organized, focused and reliable, extremely professional, honest and fair with complete integrity.........she possesses all the personal and professional qualities so valuable in someone to help you organize, evaluate and dispose of your estate and family collections with the best possible results. I have recently recommended Annette/As Time Goes Bye, to another old family friend who is in need of help in dealing with her caretakee's art collection and is looking for an excellent professional who will provide direction and honest appraisal as befits their needs, as I know Annette will...”

“I have visited this lovey shop off and on for 5 or more years! Joanne is a lovely women with a good eye for picking merchandise that is not soon in any of the stores large and small in our area! There is parking in 2 lots in the area or you can go by bus! The outside decor catches your eye! You want to go in with the window displays she does! Check this shop out!”
“A gem of a place. Quality people doing quality work. I asked them to glue up and refinish my reproduction antique tabletop. The purpose of the glue up was to turn the 4 pieces of the top into a solid piece. I had removed the skirt before bringing the pieces in. Dan Jr sent me back home for the skirt and they ended up fabricating the pieces to make a full 360 degree skirt. It looks amazing. Then they finished it all with a nice mahogany color stain and light gloss urethane.”
“I love this shop. About 80% of the furnishings at my Boston home are from Upstairs Downstairs. There, I’ve been able to find a mix of new and old (antique or vintage) items. The owner, Laura, is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and has a sophisticated and elegant taste. I can’t recommend this store enough. For those heavier items, they also ship and deliver.Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this is a MUST SEE in Boston.”
“Such an amazing shop, with the warmest and most helpful customer service you can imagine. Getting our fire tools and firewood holder here was such a wonderful experience. This is one of those local gems that you don't want to miss.”
“Great little shop that is much bigger than it seems from the outside. They bring in beautiful antiques from Europe but also make some custom pieces or can modify pieces to fit your needs. Two full floors of antiques plus an outdoor area and shed. Worth a visit.”
“I visited this antique shop on July 31st this year and purchased the book "The Bartevians: A Boston family." I am delighted to have had the opportunity to read through the history of Pat's family, which eloquently narrates the remarkable story of the family and witnesses the hardships that America went through during the Great Depression and World War II. Thank you Pat for allowing me to share in your rich life experiences.”
“I had to take some time to write this and help promote Janice and Cal's cute little antique business in beacon hill. they are the sweetest elderly couple, super knowledgeable and explained to me the history behind each of their pieces. shop has a lot to offer but specializes in antique procelains. I bought a beautifulChinese embroidery from them 2 yrs ago and my mom got a pair of Dresden Lamb cup sets today. both will be treasured for years to come. makes me sad that there isn't more shops like this in this mass produced world.(the husband got yelled at for giving us too much of a discount so l gotta help him out here lol)”
“You can't always count on it being open exactly by the posted hours, but if you're near downtown Wakefield and it happens to be open, it's definitely worth your time to stop in. It's a small space but they use it well; there are knickknacks and cool antique pieces everywhere you look, and the owners are knowledgeable about what they sell and about the history of the town. This shop differs from other local antique shops in that it sells more small pieces and collectibles, rather than large pieces of expensive furniture and framed paintings. It's a much cozier and more welcoming feel than the showroom-style places nearby where you're scared to touch anything with a price tag on it. I collect vintage compacts and cosmetics and Un-Common Antiques has saved me a couple trips to Concord, as I can find the pieces I'm looking for here without the ridiculous markups and the long drive.”

“Gorgeous, high quality stock of rugs. Very knowledgeable and happy to share about the design and construction of various carpets without making me feel uncomfortable about my relative ignorance of the world of fine carpets. Highly recommend!”

“The best store in Boston if you are I terested in transit, history or both! I highly recommend this store. All the things I have gotten from here were reasonably priced.”
“Great experience! Betty was wonderful and so helpful! I had an antique frame that needed a new back. She quickly and efficiently replaced it making it like new.While I was in there I noticed the wide array of frames. Will be back for my next framing project!”

“I don’t think I’ve ever worn a piece of clothing I’ve bought from Vivant that wasn’t met with an insane amount of compliments. They have some of the most unique and beautiful vintage pieces that are truly one of one. All the staff is knowledgable and friendly, and they have a great selection of jewelry as well as clothes. At this point, half of my jewelry collection consists of their sterling silver goodies, which I always get at a reasonable price. The store itself is like a museum, it is truly just fun to walk around and admire the clothes, flick through their record collection, and browse through the vintage ephemera. And if you need a pair of vintage pants that fit you perfectly, trust me they have them. Plus they are always doing events to engage with the community, bonus points for that. ❤️”
“A true business man who stands behind not only his work but his word that’s nearly impossible to find today GREAT BUSINESS AND QUALITY everyone I met were all very helpful. GREAT COMPANY”
“Sharon and her beautiful collection of antiques and jewelry from Africa was just the cherry on top of our trip to Boston. It's rare in antique type stores to actually get to meet the person behind the collection and it made it so much more special! I got some beautiful silver rings and a bracelet, vintage post cards & playing cards, and a silver butter knife. I would've bought so much more if only I didn't have to get on a plane!! Thank you for sharing your stories and your beautiful things, Sharon!”

“This jewel box of a store has held treasures for decades. Whenever I am looking for a special gift, I know I will find it here. Jewelry, artful scarves, wallets and a few handbags in all price ranges are available. They beautifully gift wrap your finds.”
“Exceptionally nice store to consign with and shop at! The consignment process is very easy and goes smoothly. The store selection is high quality with offerings changing regularly. Highly recommend!”
“Had the pleasure to talk with Wayne, who quickly helped me figure out what to do about a 100+ year old gramophone I had. Really honest and kind, and helped me out a whole lot. If you’re trying to figure out what to do with some old antiques and collectibles, a definitely recommend contacting central mass auctions!”
“Oh my goodness! This is such a unique shop from the floor to the ceilings! Literally you have to see the floor! It's amazing! I could spend hours in there looking at all the unique one of a kind items they have. Also love their earrings and accessories for a statement to any outfit! Highly recommend! Staff is so pleasant as well! All around great experience! Can't wait to go back!”
“Dan helped us pick out two beautifully refinished nightstands and did an incredible job reupholstering our victorian couch from the 1800s. All of their furniture is of the highest quality and at a reasonable price, which is a refreshing change from the all the cheaply made furniture out there. I can't say enough good things about Dan and his team and look forward to picking out unique pieces from them for many years to come!”

“A very kind man who is super knowledgeable about his inventory. Found exactly what I wanted and for a good price. It's appointment only, and anyone looking for jewelry should absolutely come see this man!”
“This small shop is a treasure trove. I bought two pieces here and I get so many compliments. It's filled to the gills with beautiful pieces. well worth stopping by.”
“I called Doug to give me appraisals on some dining room furniture ,and odd tables and chairs. He was very knowledgeable about everything and showed me proof of the value of my things ( not very much ). I felt he was very fair and took everything and more at a very fair price. He was responsive and very personable. I highly recommend them.”

“Very good collections of collectable jewellery. Very helpful staff and patience in explaining the history and content of each piece and purchased a coral rose brooch, which my wife love. Thank you very much!”
“Excellent professional service. Job well-done. Selection of available frames is a bit limited, however. We selected one frame that had to be ordered but never came in. The second frame we chose was supposed to be available within a week but took more than another month for our piece to be ready. Some of this may have been due to low inventories at suppliers due to Covid, and The Frame Gallery did a very good job keeping us informed about delays. All-in-all, we will definitely use them in the future and recommend them with the above qualifier.”
“Some stuff In here is ridiculously priced, every person feels as if because it's old, it's worth a lot, and that's not the case. But in all honesty it's fun to poke around in here and sometimes you can find some cool stuff.”
