RENAISSANCE REVIVAL TO 70'S RETRO | ANTIQUE TOWN DESTINATION MALL
America's biggest beach town is also Florida's leading antique destination, and this converted 1960s bank building is part of the reason why! Antique Galleries of St. Petersburg is a new stop with great old things, just blocks from the town's Grand Central Antique District.
Today we discover why these galleries are distinctly different than the other antique shops in town. From the gated colonnade filled with patio concrete and garden iron to the corner gallery of Italian painted furniture, this is an antique and vintage mall far beyond the ordinary.
Do designer names float your boat? We learn why Jascha Brodjo changed his name, who created the scarce first Earth Day poster and when a German sculptor created a dynamic propellor shaped table. A candy jar from outer space by a famed ex-Blenko designer catches our eye for a moment...but then there were cute puppies to distract us!
The 1970s? They're well represented in a space full of mid-century kitsch and vibrant colors. The 1870s? A gallery full of Italian Renaissance Revival painted furniture is a stunning and different discovery. The 1770s? They have that too...this is one very complete antique pavilion, so much so that we'll have to come back soon to see the second story galleries!
Here's a few of the other things we find on our first pass through this exciting antique center:
Concrete cherub statue, Union Stoneware #12 crock, 1960s designer patio furniture, concrete bird baths, Gaudez sculptural lamps, battery operated train in box, Lionel olive drab train, Coca-Cola button, Disney tray and puppets, Colony 'Antigua' jar, Griff puppy litho, ABC plate, carved German nutcracker, slag glass lamp, Pyrex mixing bowl sets, stainless lab table, chrome modernist lamps, 1930s tile table, Italian tazza, carved religious figure, pietra dura table, Italian fasces inlaid sideboard, painted Italian cabinets and secretary desk, Victorian Italian tapestry, putti carved polychrome figure, R. Bellini painting, Georges Briard Pyrex tray, Blendo glass, tiered modern corner table, wall oven and cooktop, Royal Aristocrat typewriter, CB radio, repurposed crate table, etc.
