Antique/Consignment/Used Furniture Stores in ABQ! (Albuquerque, Edgewood: live, designers) - New Mexico (NM) - City-Data Forum

Hi all....I am a little southern belle recently transplanted here to your wonderful city & am in search of a great antique/consignment store to pick up some furniture for my new (nearly empty) house. As I mentioned I am southern & love, love, love (love!) antique victorian pieces...But, I am also looking for some more modern pieces to mix it up in my casa. Also, in general, I just love spending hours wandering around antique stores-so if any of you have any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. One more note on the furniture-I'm not into spending tons of money on a single piece...more into finding something that needs a little love...so please don't send me to a store where a chair is like $1000.

Thanks y'all

There's a little furniture store that I have found some great pieces at... it's called Casita del Sol.

Here's the address:
501 San Pedro Drive Southeast

You should also check out the antique shops on Central across from the Dions Pizza. It's in a three story building with an all glass facade! Very nice building (architecturally).

Good suggestion rybert. They might not have a LOT of furniture but they have a lot of everything else. Just west of San Mateo on Central, south side of the street. Bought a lot of stuff there!

That sounds like a really interesting & fun place-do you happen to know the name of it?

I wish I did! I live out of state but have friends in Albuq. that I'm visiting this weekend, infact (also in Edgewood) If noone answers it right away on this thread, I'll get back to you on it this weekend as it will be one of my stops.

I disagree...I think the best consignment store by far is in Nob Hill just behind Kelly's. It is called Ziggy and Zoe's Fine Consignments. They have high end and low end. They also have good sales. This store works with the movie industry and local interior designers so their stuff is great! I have found many great things for my home. I think they are open wednesdays - sundays. Try it out.

Nobody claimed to have the "best." Maybe the OP should hedge her bets and visit as many as possible. You wouldn't think Z & Z would have much to offer as they are spacially limited.
