The collection of vintage furniture and architectural antiques at this Brookhaven auction house is so famous that Hollywood often comes calling, with major studios renting properties for period pictures from among Gatsby's massive inventory. Browsing the warehouse is like stepping back through history, with everything from estate jewelry to antique bars to vintage automobiles available for your daily perusal. Auction time is serious business at Gatsby's, however, with tickets selling for as much as $100 for the right to bid on the likes of Elton John's wardrobe. Review © 2009, Wcities |

Perhaps the most expansive and intriguing home decor and gift shop in East Atlanta, Traders pulls out all the stops in selecting its unique inventory. Standard items such as candles, antique and antique-ish furniture, picture frames, books and lamps are complemented by such whimsical and one of a kind items as miniature fountains and folk art pieces. For a truly exquisite example of kitsch, check out the selection of retro lunch boxes, fashioned to resemble TV sets with antennae for handles, and starring such time honored favorites as Marilyn Monroe and the cast of Bewitched.
