Jeremiah's Antique Shoppes, Putnam, Conn. (photo by Eric H.)
Jeremiah’s Antique Shoppes in Putnam, Conn., with more than 40 dealers under one roof, is more down-to-earth than many of the antique stores you see charging so much money on rare high-end items. While they do have expensive one-of-a-kind antiques and collectibles, you will also find a high amount of merchandise for under $10.00 — including books, doll dresses, memorabilia, toys, baseball cards, lunch boxes, etc. The main dish of Jeremiah’s, however, seems to be dishes — lots and lots of them!
The atmosphere at Jeremiah’s is also opposite some of the snooty stores of this ilk, with a laid-back, down-to-earth feeling and some very helpful customer service.
Putnam is known as the “Antique Capital of New England,” with around 50,000 sq. ft. of antique shopping amongst several different businesses. While each store deserves a lengthy visit, we would certainly recommend Jeremiah’s near the forefront of your antiquing experience.
