Located just five minutes from Selfridges, Grays Antique Centre offers an entertaining antique-hunting experience among more than 200 independent dealers selling a broad array of collectable, antique and vintage items.
Housed in a stunning red terracotta building, Grays Antique Centre claims to be “one of the world’s largest and most diverse collections of fine antiques, jewellery, and vintage fashion”. And while the emphasis of Grays Antique Centre is very much on antique silver, watches and jewellery, there are a number of stalls that specialize in militaria, porcelain, English ephemera, glass, tribal & Asian art, ethnic items and general antiques - vendors located downstairs showcase fabulous vintage clothing and costume jewellery.
Whether a fan of buying antiques or just browsing, the broad range of dealers of the Grays Antique Centre can bring out the aspiring Lovejoy in anyone.
Prices at Grays Antique Centre are on the more expensive end when compared to London's regular flea markets. However, this gives room for haggling if you feel like to - especially in The Mews building, which is down the small side road to the left of the main door and is slightly more vintage and affordable. Alternatively, visitors can just treat the place like a free museum and admire some very ‘high end’ quality objects.

24th October 2024 at 12:20Manager proceeded to stalk my father and I whilst se we’re looking to sell a very high end pair of Cartier cufflinks. Rudely interrupted us at a stall shouting for a certificate And ID I tried to explain that I had my passport and the original receipt but he didn’t take it in over his tirade of demands, horrible, rude & condescending man, he then said he would kick out anyone in the market that purchased from us and said he’s the manager and that’s it!! the poor lady at the stall was so embarrassed and apologised.
I have never felt so insulted in my life. Grays antique market, please do yourself a favour and get rid of this horrible man. He’s a large scruffy Asian man. Absolutely disgusting.
