Best Antique Shops In Coastal Hampton Roads Virginia

There’s one thing for sure about Virginia, and that is there’s an abundance of antique dealers scattered throughout the Commonwealth. From the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Atlantic coast, Virginia has a treasure trove of shops and malls to peruse through. From exceptional antique dealers that specialize in fine American, British and Continental furniture and decorative arts from the 17th, 18th and 19th and early 20th centuries, to the weekend markets that offer used furnishings and brick-a-brac at a flea price. So, whatever you are hunting for, you are most likely going to find it in one of Virginia’s many antiquing haunts

In this blog, we will focus on antique shops located around coastal Tidewater, Virginia (also known as Hampton Roads). This incorporates the cities of Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, Suffolk, Virginia Beach, Hampton & Newport News and its surrounding areas. These are the shops that specialize in true authentic antique items that may include furniture, silver, porcelains, lighting art and decorative arts.
