Two showrooms anchor Revival Antiques in Pasadena, one at 1368 North Lake Avenue and a second at 1 West California Boulevard, Suite 611, giving the business room to spread out a specialty that most general antique stores only touch on the edges: architectural salvage, antique lighting, and California made tile and pottery. Where a typical antique mall mixes a bit of everything under one roof, Revival Antiques leans hard into period lighting fixtures, hand carved and hand painted furnishings, decorative ironwork, and planters and pottery pulled from the early to mid twentieth century, with particular strength in pieces from the 1920s and 1930s.
Style wise, the inventory moves across Spanish Revival, Monterey, and Arts and Crafts furnishings, along with select modern pieces, which places the shop squarely within the design vocabulary that defines so much of Pasadena and the surrounding San Gabriel Valley. This is a region built out during the exact decades the shop specializes in, full of Spanish Colonial Revival bungalows and Craftsman era homes, so a chandelier, sconce, or salvaged architectural fragment sourced here often has a very literal, direct fit with the housing stock just outside the showroom doors. That is a meaningful advantage for anyone restoring a period home rather than trying to force a generic reproduction fixture into a house it was never designed for.
Both locations are open daily from 11 in the morning until 6 in the evening, and the shop also offers custom design services for buyers who want help sourcing or adapting a piece to a specific space rather than simply browsing the floor. That combination of retail inventory and hands on design consultation sets Revival Antiques apart from stores that function purely as a marketplace, since staff are positioned to help translate a homeowners restoration goals into an actual sourced or custom piece. Questions about a specific fixture, a custom lighting project, or general inquiries can be routed through the shops listed phone line or email.
Pasadena has long supported a serious antiques and architectural salvage trade, thanks in large part to the concentration of historic homes throughout the city and neighboring communities like South Pasadena and San Marino, and Revival Antiques has carved out its niche within that trade by staying narrowly focused rather than diluting its offering. Buyers who already know they want period correct lighting or California pottery, rather than a broad browse through mixed vintage goods, are well served by a shop built specifically around that specialty.
Put simply, Revival Antiques is a two location Pasadena source for antique lighting, architectural salvage, and California tile and pottery spanning the Spanish Revival, Monterey, and Arts and Crafts eras, open daily and staffed to help homeowners source or customize period appropriate pieces for historic Southern California homes.
