Loved By Oakland
From Adams Point to Temescal, our neighbors count on the Mercantile for rare vintage finds, honest consignment payouts, and sustainable curation that honors Oakland's storied creative heritage.
★ 4.9 Average Rating across 280+ verified East Bay consignors and antique collectors.
The thrill of unearthing a mint 1960s walnut credenza three blocks from Lake Merritt was unmatched. Fair pricing and zero thrift-store chaos.
Consigning my collection was completely transparent. Their team appraised everything respectfully and my direct payout arrived within two weeks.
Every Saturday visit feels like a curated discovery. You can immediately tell each piece is vetted for craftsmanship, provenance, and character.
Equitable consignor splits and exceptional mid-century lighting. It is the only boutique in Oakland where vintage truly feels elevated.
