About American Antique Mall
American Antique Mall is a Tucson antique store and multi-dealer warehouse with more than 500 merchants offering vintage furniture, home goods, jewelry, and other collectible items. The business describes itself as Tucson's oldest antique mall, and it has been part of the city's antique shopping scene since opening in September 1993. Located in Tucson's oldest antique shopping district near Grant Road and Country Club, the mall brings together the proprietor's merchandise and items from consignors in one approximately 7,500-square-foot space.
The inventory covers a wide range of interests. Furniture is available in both large and small pieces, alongside coins, toys, marbles, old record players, vintage electric fans, license plates from many states, military items, and turquoise. The mall also carries new turquoise jewelry, as well as Tucson Indian jewelry and other Southwestern pieces. Visitors may find Navajo squash blossom necklaces, sterling silver rings and necklaces, concho belts, and cuffs for men and women. Western offerings include spurs, cowboy items, and mining relics.
American Antique Mall also has a substantial selection of Mexican and regional goods. Its listed inventory includes Taxco jewelry, artwork, retablos, furniture, pottery, and folk art, along with distinctly Southwest items. Because the mall is made up of many dealers, the selection changes as merchandise is added. The business says antiques are added daily and offers a customer want list for shoppers searching for an item that is not currently in the mall. That approach gives the store both the variety of a multi-dealer operation and a way to continue looking for specific pieces.
The mall presents itself as clean, spacious, well lit, secure, and professionally managed, with knowledgeable and courteous salespeople available to answer questions. Its merchandise is organized and displayed throughout the space, and wide tiled aisles are described as wheelchair friendly. The business also identifies itself as Tucson's only pet-friendly antique mall. It has been featured on the Travel Channel, including an episode of "Dig Wars Ruby Arizona," where Dwight was featured as an appraiser. The mall says it has received recognition including six Best of Tucson awards from Tucson Weekly readers and staff, along with a Tucson Favorite award from Tucson Newspapers.
Visitors can find American Antique Mall in the southeast corner of Grant Road and Country Club, in a blue and red striped building marked by kachina figures and a red, white, and blue awning. The business advises checking its calendar for current visiting information because summer days and hours can vary. Its regular listed schedule includes Thursday through Saturday, while the mall is closed Sunday through Wednesday. To help protect fragile merchandise and century-old glass showcases, the store asks visitors not to bring food or drinks, oversized purses, totes, packages, backpacks, or strollers. Narrow aisles and glass displays are part of the setting, so those policies are worth reviewing before a visit.
