Antique hunting tips for Kilkenny

Hunting antiques in Kilkenny? A few rules help:

• Bring measurements at Cass Antiques. That sideboard is useless if it won't fit through your door. Measure the room and the car before you fall in love.
• Check the back and underside at D&R Antiques. Construction tells the truth: dovetails, screws, saw marks. Flip it over (carefully) before you decide.
• Buy the best you can afford. One excellent piece beats five mediocre ones. Quality holds value; quantity just holds dust.
• Check auction results. A quick search of recent auction prices tells you what things actually sell for — not what dealers ask.

Good to know

We searched about 30 km around Kilkenny — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new antique store in Kilkenny can take a while to appear. The 3 above are only as current as the community map. A antique store that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.

We don't list prices or authenticate pieces — that's the dealer's job in person. What we list is the where: real shops, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 3 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
