Sharing a building with a vacuum cleaner store, the Blue Jar Antique Mall is somewhat unassuming to those who may not be aware of the treasures housed within. It sits on a main street of regular shops, and there is no indication from the outside that this place is something of a collector's paradise. It has been trading here since 2010, although it was taken over by new management in 2018. The quality of the merchandise inside has remained consistently high under different owners, and its reputation among antique enthusiasts has only grown over the years.
Inside the Blue Jar Antique Mall, about 40 independent vendors share more than 7,000 square feet of space. Some areas are clearly marked as belonging to a particular dealer, others blend together a bit, and individual collections are not entirely defined. This is not a problem for shoppers, however, and no matter what merchandise they are interested in, everyone in the store is happy to help.
On most occasions, it feels as if the staff are simply happy to share their passion for antiques with fellow collectors, or to pass on their enthusiasm to those casually browsing for appealing additions to their homes. All in all, the atmosphere inside is incredibly welcoming and is one of the reasons why customers keep coming back.
Another attraction of the Blue Jar Antique Mall is the wide variety of vintage and antique items available. Collectors will find telephones, artwork, old books, china, lighting fixtures, luggage, furniture, rocking horses, clothing, boxes, globes, kitchenware, and a host of curios and decorative items in between. The displays are replenished daily so there is always something new to see. This store is truly a hidden gem in Edmonton's antique scene and is always a pleasure to visit.
