They cover a wide range of traditional antiques, decorative items and plenty of interesting collectables making it the perfect place if you want a special gift for any occasion or have been searching for that piece to complete a collection. Prices are reasonable and range from $5-$500 with new stock brought in every week. If they don’t have what you are looking for, they are always happy to try and source specific pieces, taking their treasure-hunt far and wide. You can also try their main shop, The Ferry Antique Centre at 282 Ferry Road, Waltham.
