How We Reviewed
1. Spazio Antiquités Architecturales
Website: https://www.spazio.ca/
Address: 8405 Boulevard Saint-Laurent
Contact: (514) 384-4343
Hours: Tuesday-Friday: 10:00 AM-5:00 PM; Saturday: 10:00 AM-4:00 PM
An older home is much easier to restore when you can find fireplace mantels, wrought-iron gates, stained-glass windows, and period hardware in one place.
Spazio Antiquités Architecturales stands out for their wide selection of interior and exterior architectural salvage. You can also browse solid chests, bookcases, and tables that add character to any room.
Last spring, we spoke with a local contractor while looking at the shop’s marble, slate, and wood mantels. He told us that the period fixtures had been a great help during his Victorian home renovation.
They also carry antique lighting fixtures and iron railings that look impressive up close. Many of these pieces feel solid and durable, which suits the character of older properties.
But remember, they focus on historical furniture and architectural features rather than small decorative items. To add, they’re closed on Sundays and Mondays.
It’s a godsend
Their focus on architectural antiques means they’ve got an incredible selection of stained glass, doors, hardware, etc. If you’re someone like me that’s trying to de-“2011 ikea” a 1930’s home, it’s a godsend. Frank and Alessandro are lovely folks – helpful, knowledgeable and friendly.

Two large floors of a variety of antiques
Two large floors of a variety of antiques. Upstairs has stained glass, different sorts of mantlepieces, iron works including fence and gate stuff as well as bits and pieces from what looked like cast iron stoves. Lots of lights, including quite a wide selection of Art Deco chandeliers, as well as a smaller selection of nice Arts and Crafts style lighting. Tons of wall lights and sconces, as well as any type of door or furniture fixture/hardware you might like, including knobs, hinges, handles, hooks, etc.

2. Antiques Loft 9
Website: https://www.antiquesloft9.com/
Address: 6011 Avenue du Parc
Contact: (514) 315-8492
Hours: Monday-Wednesday: 10:00 AM-6:00 PM; Thursday-Saturday: 10:00 AM-7:00 PM; Sunday: 11:00 AM-6:00 PM
Collectors who love mixing eras will appreciate a shop that brings together antique furniture, North American and European paintings, retro accessories, and eclectic collectables.
Antiques Loft 9 does just that, and it’s packed with fine art, lighting, and decorative objects. This is also a fantastic stop for an Art Deco china cabinet or an oak revolving bookcase.
Their rare art objects and lamps set them apart from nearby standard vintage shops. You’ll spot 19th-century French bronze Sèvres porcelain boxes and Monolithic cameos next to signed Murano table lamps.
They even carry French Art Deco alabaster chandeliers and 1910 Stickley Brothers armchairs.
However, they aren’t offering vintage jewellery options right now. The Mile End address also means a longer commute for shoppers travelling from East or North Montreal.
This little store is packed with beautiful, classy vintage and antique pieces
This little store is packed with beautiful classy vintage and antique pieces.the shop owner is extremely kind and knowledgeable. He has so many interesting stories. The only drawback is that it is super packed but if you have the eye to sift through many things and love variety, this is most definitely for you. You can also visit their elegant website if the store is too daunting but it is worth visit the store.

3. Grand Central Inc.
Website: https://grandcentralinc.ca/
Address: 2448 Rue Notre-Dame Ouest
Contact: (514) 935-1467; (514) 935-1269
Hours: Monday-Friday: 9:30 AM-5:30 PM; Saturday: 11:00 AM-5:00 PM
Nothing transforms a room faster than historic lighting, and Grand Central Inc. offers Canada’s largest selection of antique chandeliers and sconces. In fact, this shop has over 30 years of experience restoring old chandeliers, lanterns, and lamps.
Plus, their showroom covers everything from floor lamps and candelabras to outdoor lighting. In addition to lighting, they stock period chairs, commodes, secretary desks, tables, and pedestals.
A colleague brought a tarnished brass wall sconce to their team a while back, and he said they rewired and restored it beautifully.
Better yet, they pack and ship worldwide for buyers out of town.
But because their stock changes constantly, hesitation can cost you a great find. Additionally, they’re closed every Sunday, so plan your trip for Monday through Saturday.

This kind of store must be considered as a national treasure
Today I was in the store with my daughter. I was there because of my curiosity. the place is unbelievable. Most like travelling time in a fascinating way, you have to be extremely careful when you walk inside because all these incredible furniture, art, and articles from the past it’s all around you. it’s difficult to describe. I absolute suggest you that walk inside the store to feel kind of sensation that you possibly not find nowhere else. The person there was absolutely kind. This kind of stores must be considered as a national treasure.

Hours: Thursday-Friday: 11:00 AM-4:00 PM; all other days by appointment
Three generations of dealers have run Petit Musée Limitée since 1890, building an incredible collection of world antiques and antiquities on Sherbrooke Street West.

5. Kitsch à l’Os… ou pas
Website: https://kitschalos.com/
Address: 3439 Rue Hochelaga
Contact: (514) 889-4227; [email protected]
Hours: Wednesday-Friday: 11:00 AM-6:30 PM; Saturday-Sunday: 11:00 AM-5:00 PM; Online store available 24/7
Treasure hunters who enjoy playful, affordable finds will love Kitsch à l’Os… ou pas for its vast array of items sourced across Canada and New England.
This Rue Hochelaga favourite spreads out across eight themed showrooms, pairing pre-owned retro pieces with handmade goods from over 120 local artisans. We think it’s a relaxed, welcoming alternative to formal galleries.
You can easily spend an afternoon digging through antique home decor and quirky retro collectables. Alongside the older treasures, they sell practical accessories like soaps, beard care, shaving supplies, jewellery, and fun socks.
Plus, their online shop runs 24/7 for easy browsing from home!
Unfortunately, the physical storefront stays closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. And if you order online, shipping across Montreal and Quebec is free only when your cart reaches $150.
Also, antiques are thrown about this place
I’m American. Cool and funny gifts to buy! Some mass produced and locally made. Also antiques are thrown about this place. Very unique and the store owner was sweet and helpful. Her dog (Wendy?) was cute! Would come back!
