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.

What a treasure in downtown Wakefield. Nancy was friendly and knowledgeable. Enjoyed looking around at the wonderful diversity of antiques - from jewelry to political pins to china. Especially love the focus on Wakefield memorabilia. I will definitely be back!

This is a great little place for authentic, quirky antiques. It's in a beautiful part of Wakefield near the lake, so if you're touring main street, it's definitely worth a look.
