Announcing Free Shipping To Alberta !!!!!!!!!!!

Categories // Updates

We are having a FREE SHIPPING event for all our Alberta customers. We used to do 3 large antique shows in the fall of each year in Alberta’s major markets.

We would load up our truck and trailer with lots of great items from our antique store and bring them to Calgary, and Red Deer and sell them at these shows.

Many of our customers would call or email us ahead and ask if we could bring this or that item of antique furniture that they have seen on our website to the show and they would pick it up from there to save on the shipping cost.

Our History

Categories // History

In 1993 Tammy and I purchased a gift shop and heritage home in the old downtown section of Chilliwack. It was a turnkey operation completely inventoried and ready to go. Along with gifts, clothes and toiletries there was a decent inventory of antiques for sale including antique furniture. We soon developed a love for antiques in particular great quality antique furniture.

As our business grew and we needed to replace the antique items we were selling we soon realized that we would not be able to accomplish that from local sources and would have to look much farther afield. The next issue was getting the items and to make it affordable we would have to be bringing in container quantities.

    I just wanted to thank you for the excellent service we received during the recent purchase and delivery of our dining table- everything went without a hitch. Your website is one of the best, but after visiting your store I can honestly say that all of the furniture is even more spectacular in reality than in the pictures. We'll be back..

    We bought a table from Dennis in late 2010. About a year later, my daughter caused some damage to the table. Dennis thought she might have exacerbated a hairline crack. Dennis drove close to two hours to our house, examined the table, took it to a craftsman to be repaired, and paid for the repair himself. That is a level of service that one rarely sees these days. It is a delight to deal with someone who looks after the customer. I would not hesitate to recommend Antiques by Design.
