Miami Antique Market



As obsessed with flea markets as I am, I was relieved to have an extremely pleasant first experience with the Miami antique world. I had heard about Miami's Antique Collectible Market on Lincoln Road and knew that I had to test it out to see if Miami had what it took to keep my vintage shopping hobby afloat. I was blown away at the amount of gorgeous furniture pieces I saw for sale, mainly ranging from the 50's and 60's, but of course with a Miami art deco flare thrown in every now and then. I found the perfect round dining table from the 1960's to put outside on our balcony. With a white lacquered top and stainless steel chic circular base, it's just stunning! There was also designer pieces such as a Philippe Starck chair that I was drooling over, all in perfect condition. Better yet, they have a vast assortment of vintage clothing, my favorite vendor selling all designer Pucci and Lanvin frocks, with retro print designs that could inspire me for weeks! With the sun shining and a warm breeze tossing the scattered palm trees, the Miami Antique Collectible Market is the perfect place to be inspired, vintage shop, and even grab a bite to eat or shop retail on the infamous Lincoln Road. A visit to this flea market is the perfect way to fritter a Sunday away, I just wish it didn't only happen every other weekend!
