Antique hunting tips for São Paulo

Hunting antiques in São Paulo? A few rules help:

• Ask about the shop's specialty at Bêgê. Every dealer leans somewhere: furniture, silver, books, textiles. Find the lean that matches your interest.
• Check the back and underside at Began Antiguidades. Construction tells the truth: dovetails, screws, saw marks. Flip it over (carefully) before you decide.
• Check auction results. A quick search of recent auction prices tells you what things actually sell for — not what dealers ask.
• Learn the marks. Maker's marks, hallmarks, factory stamps — they're the ID cards of antiques. A loupe and a marks guide change everything.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around São Paulo — 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 São Paulo can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 2, or a antique store we missed entirely? The map is the source of truth here — one OpenStreetMap edit corrects it for everyone.

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 2 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.
