Royal Port Antiques Warehouse in Salem New Jersey

In the Fall of 2003 we opened the Royal Port Antiques in what was known as the South Jersey Farmer’s Exchange, a 12,000 square foot abandoned warehouse along the banks of Fenwick Creek, at the entrance of the historic district of Salem, NJ. With the encouragement of the town and support of the Historic Preservation Commission, we extensively restored the warehouse.

We brought ten years of experience and a vision for the building and the community. We formerly owned the Queen’s Inn and King’s Row Antiques in Mullica Hill, We grew out of our previous locations.

The Royal Port has a handpicked selection of Early American Antiques as well as a unique collection of architectural elements. The inventory includes many 19th century items including blanket chests, rope beds, farm tables, Windsor chairs, baskets, quilts and a great deal of early and interesting treenware and iron. The architectural elements offer those restoring early properties an amazing amount of items needed for restoration projects. All items are tastefully displayed in room setting throughout the unique and spacious building.

In February of 2007 we added a member to our staff, our son Sam. He is with us all the time. You’ll see him at the shop, on deliveries, at auctions and at shows.

Come and visit. You will not only enjoy the beautiful countryside driving to Royal Port Antiques, but you will walk away with many ideas on how rooms can be planned, using early pieces of furniture and accessories. Relax on the large wrap around porch over-looking the water and enjoy the complimentary cookies and drinks we provide for our customers everyday.
