VISIT THE ANTIQUES FAIR AT NELSON MANDELA SQUARE
SUNDAY  6th OCTOBER 2013

 

Johannesburg’s best kept secret is the Antiques & Collectables Fair at Nelson Mandela Square.  On the first Sunday of every month the Upper and Lower levels of Nelson Mandela Square come alive with over 60 stalls boasting the best in antiques & collectables. This Sunday, the 6th of October is no exception.

 

As the largest and most successful monthly antiques fair in the country, it has become a famous attraction, not only with local collectors but with the many thousands of tourists who pass through Johannesburg and who marvel at stumbling on such a unique antiques fair equal to any of the top international antique markets. Add to that the convenience of having the Gautrain just a block away, which makes coming from Pretoria or Rosebank an easy ride, and you have a great way to spend a Sunday!

 

Antique collecting has universal appeal.  Whether you are looking for a rare book, print or map or love to collect porcelain figurines or silver collectables, the Antiques Fair has it all – and more! The antiques industry has shown remarkable resilience and remains one of the best investment options with investors snapping up valuable antiques, art, stamps, coins and collectables - investments that not only appreciate over time but will give infinite pleasure.

 

The over sixty dealers who make up the antiques community are an eclectic bunch of people who have a passion for their trade and who are committed to giving the very best in products and services.  They are passionate about their collections and many are specialists in their fields.  Whether you’re looking for a rare piece of silver, an unusual corkscrew, a map or rare book, or want to start a collection of porcelain, the dealers will give you all the advice, support and encouragement you need to become a devotee of antiques and collecting.
