Bratislava Antiques, Antique Dealers
Small antique shops are scattered around the city centre. If you want to sample a few, walk the Korzo (Sedlarska, Michalska) and surrounding streets (Laurinska, Obchodna) and you will find a number of shops. Palackeho street near the Reduta also has four antique shops.
The times of the post-communist antiques bonanza are over - most baroque era items are long gone. Nonetheless, browsing can still yield some bargains for a connoiseur.
Most antique shops cater to an international clientele and are thus marked in English or German (Antiques, Antiquitaten) or in Slovak (Starozitnictvo, Starozitnosti).
Licensing of exports is within the domain of the Ministry of Culture. Check with the shop for details if you plan to export antiques. You may require some paperwork to avoid customs hassle.
