How Buying Antiques Helps Preserve the Planet

At Toronto Antiques on King we are very conscientious about doing our part to preserve the planet.  That is why we would like you to know that buying antiques has positive effects on the world around us. Choosing to buy antiques, vintage items and second hand goods reduces the waste and carbon emissions that come with new production.

Many newly produced items are not made to the highest of standards and thus end up in the trash within just a few years.  Buy antiques and enjoy finely crafted goods that will last many lifetimes.  And to make more of a positive impact on our environment, carry your own reusable bags when shopping. Here’s one more green tip: if you are having something shipped, try to use ground shipping to reduce your carbon footprint.

We Moved All Our Antiques, Whoopi Goldberg Visits & Today We Started Blogging!

We may be an antique store, but that doesn’t mean we are old fashioned!  We are very excited to now have this forum to share our latest news, upcoming store events, and all things antique with you.  And what a great time to start blogging just after moving into our new location at 284 King Street West.  We can still be easily found just a few meters down the block from our old space.

After a lot of hard work, we are just about settled in now and loving our big and bright new space.  Our customers have been giving us wonderful feedback about the new store, including Whoopi Goldberg who was in the other day to hunt for treasures and to do some shopping!

We are very much looking forward to a busy (and hopefully warm) summer season and we hope to see you soon!
