So I was searching for different antique shops in the Dallas area and there are just SO many of them. I’ve decided to ask the best source - grandma (well, my husband’s grandma). She said they use to go to someone name Philip and that he and his wife were one of the nicest people. She wasn’t sure they were still around since it’s been awhile. So I looked for Philip and antiques in Dallas and found Philip Maia and asked if that was him. She confirmed that it was. So anyway Grandpa use to go to auctions and was into antiques and oriental rugs, so I’m sure he knew the good places to go. Well here’s their info:

Philip Maia Antiques
1209 Slocum Street Dallas, Texas 75207
(214) 939-5200

If you decide to drop by there, I’m sure you can just shop hop to all the other antique shops around Slocum Street. That’s the design disctrict and it’s where you can shop til you drop.

BTW - She just mentioned someone name Ruth and that they would buy stuff from her as well. So I found Ruth Taylor Estate Sales and that’s the company, though she thinks it’s probably the kids running it now. Don’t you just love google? Here’s their info:
