“Loads of furniture to look at, and it's all different styles and colors...something for everyone to love. Really groovy place to find great finds too. Lyle is absolutely 💯 great, interested in having just that right thing in stock. And two floors!
Later bought this dresser for only $300 and look at it now!”
“I've been to this store several times and have always left satisfied, knowing that I got an honest deal. Kevin treats you as a valued customer not someone to get money from.
You will get friendly and very knowledgeable and honest service here. My friend recently went to the competion's store and did not buy there because she felt like a 'car salesman' was talking to her. That won't happen here.”
“I love this store. I stop in every single time I am at the mall and pick something up. They have a lovely selection of unique elegant items. The staff is so sweet as well.”
“I brought in my late father’s old pocket watch that had been sitting unused for many years. I honestly didn’t know if it could be fixed, but it means so much to me.
Because it’s such an old watch, it took time to source the necessary parts, and the final cost ended up being higher than the original estimate. Even so, it was absolutely worth it. It also came with a six-month warranty, which gave me additional peace of mind. Seeing it ticking again was incredibly emotional — it truly felt like I had a small piece of my dad back.
The craftsmanship was fantastic, and they were kind and communicative throughout the entire process. I’m deeply grateful for the care and dedication they put into restoring something so meaningful to me. In a way, hearing the watch tick again made me feel closer to my father than I have in a very long time. It gave me a sense of finally being reunited with him.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this shop to anyone who needs expert watch repair done with genuine care and heart.”
“Very neat antique shop! It was a lot of fun to browse around and see all the unique treasures they have. The store is much bigger than it looks from the outside, with booth after booth full of antiques, collectibles, furniture, decor, and little surprises tucked everywhere. You could easily spend an hour or more exploring.
Prices were a bit on the higher side for my taste, but that’s pretty common with antique shops.
Overall, it’s a great spot to stop by if you enjoy antique hunting or just want to wander through a place full of interesting pieces and vintage charm. Even if you don’t buy anything, it’s definitely worth a visit!”
“Love coming here!! Such a cute little antique shop nestled into a very walkable neighborhood with lots of little treasures to look through! Each booth has its own vibe yet it all cohesively works together. My personal favorite booth is the one with all the vintage toys! (Second booth on your right when you are walking in).
The staff is friendly and kind as well.. I’ll definitely keep returning to see what’s new! :3”
“I love this store! I'm a huge fan of Violet's Closet and have purchased pieces there several times. They have simple, well-made clothing items, as well as pieces for the eclectic and creative soul. Their selection of antiquities and vintage items is also lovely and top notch.”
“Very eclectic with a multitude of finds. From camera bodies, signed rare books, bits & bobs.
As always be aware of prices and look through everything.
I found a lot of marked up items but such is life in the antique world.
I'll be back!”

“Today I bought a little stone carved llama, I was so excited and when I got in the car I went to show my friend and realized that one of its ears had somehow fallen off from the way to the store to the car. I touched the other ear which quickly crumbled off as well. I was so sad. I had the one ear and tried really hard to find the other ear even going back in the store. I told the gentleman what happened as I was looking for it, and he gave me my money back. I felt super bad because I really liked the llama, and he offered to let me keep it while still giving me my money back. I looked on Amazon and bought a tiny top hat that I'm going to put over his head to hide the ears. This was amazing customer service, I genuinely didn't expect him to give me my money back after I had stepped outside of the store. This is how you retain customers. I will 100% be back.”
“A charming jewelry store. You know you’re walking into a time capsule as soon as you enter. Beautiful jewelry, excellent prices sold by very knowledgeable and friendly sales people. A truly delightful experience.”
