The list of the glittering items inside the museum goes like this: Arabic lamps, old tea sets, coffee pots, pashmina shawls, candleholders, linen clothes, furniture items, shishas and similar items anyone will urge to buy and keep as a symbol of pride at home.
Why Choose Us
Cut-price Furniture And Souvenirs
Antique Museum is located in the heart of Al Quoz and is a treasure trove filled with exotic and unique home decor items.
The name is misleading, as the Antique Museum is a colourful bazaar packed with knick-knacks and furniture from all over the world. Based in Al Quoz, it is so well hidden that it takes a little while to find it – but it is well worth the hunt if you have time on your hands and enjoy digging around for treasure.
Inside, the maze of passageways reminded us of Ali Baba’s cavern – dark, dusty, and crammed with a vast array of glittering trinkets. Alongside the antiques, we found bamboo bowls, plates, porcelain cups, Russian dolls, dream catchers (designed to catch bad dreams), wooden statues, and endless other decorative bits and pieces. All imported from India, Turkey, Southeast Asia, and other areas of the Middle East, this has to be one of the most unique places to browse and buy in Dubai.
We enjoyed rifling through the trinkets – but our eye was really drawn to the furniture in the second half of the premises. Hundreds of wooden pieces were piled up – both inside and outside – and there are some fabulous bargains to be snapped up. We loved the look of the wooden trunks and dark wooden cabinets – all a little sandy and dusty, but if you keep your eyes open and are ready to bargain, you can head home with some real gems.

Media & Reviews
There is something magical about this place. I really enjoy coming here.
It is a little shabby on the outside (the inside too of I'm honest) but it is such a great place to wander round and get lost.
It really is quite the unique experience.
The staff here are friendly and are always on hand to help with any questions on the furniture and trinkets. It can get hot walking around, particularly on the upper levels, and water is usually supplied for your wander through the unknown.
Haggle your way through purchases, there is plenty to discover!

A great find with a treasure trove of once in a lifetime items. Huge collection of antique silver from the region. While somewhat out of the way, it is a stands in stark contrast to the commercialism of the malls. It is so huge, you need at least a couple of hours. Staff very very knowledgeable and attentive. Best find in Dubai.

I visited the shop last week and I couldn't believe my eyes, they have a huge collection of souvenirs and handicraft items. I am thankful to Mr. Basheer for assisting me in selecting the best out of a big collection of gift items within my budget and really appreciate his professional and polite approach to the customers.
