GasLamp Too spans 25,000 square feet at 128 Powell Place in Nashville, one of two GasLamp locations operating within walking distance of each other in the city’s long-established 8th Avenue South antique district, a stretch of Nashville that has anchored the city’s vintage and design trade for decades. Led by Lauren Bugg and a team built around antique and vintage specialists, the mall combines the two GasLamp stores into a shopping circuit of nearly 300 independent dealers, which means the inventory is less a single owner’s collection and more a constantly rotating patchwork of what individual sellers bring in week to week.
The category range at GasLamp Too runs wide even by antique-mall standards: indoor and outdoor furniture, garden accents and architectural salvage for anyone renovating a historic home, lighting fixtures, artwork, serving pieces and barware, china and crystal, jewelry and fashion accessories, and a strong vinyl record and comic book selection for collectors chasing something more specific than furniture. That spread across design eras, from Primitive and Victorian pieces through Mid-Century Modern and Hollywood Regency glamour, lets the mall serve both interior designers pulling one-of-a-kind statement pieces for clients and casual shoppers hunting a weekend find.
Because two locations sit close enough to visit in a single outing, serious shoppers often treat a trip to GasLamp Too as part of a longer crawl through Nashville’s broader antique corridor rather than a single stop, and the mall’s size, at 25,000 square feet, is enough to fill a couple of unhurried hours on its own. GasLamp Too keeps generous hours to support that kind of visit: Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m., with only a handful of major holiday closures each year and shortened hours on days like July 4th and the eves of Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Given nearly 300 dealers restocking constantly, the practical advice for visitors is the same advice longtime Nashville antiquers give newcomers: nothing waits, so a piece spotted on one visit may be gone the next, and regulars often check in every few weeks rather than assuming inventory will hold. Anyone furnishing a home, dressing a set, or simply hunting nostalgic finds can call 615-292-2250 with questions about current stock or dealer specialties before making the trip. Designers working on film, television, or restaurant sets in the Nashville area have long treated malls like this one as a resource precisely because the sheer number of dealers under one roof means a specific look, whether Hollywood Regency glamour or rustic Primitive furniture, can usually be assembled without driving across town to multiple separate shops.
For shoppers searching Nashville for antiques, vintage furniture, and architectural salvage under one roof, GasLamp Too offers 25,000 square feet and roughly 300 independent dealers worth of constantly changing inventory in the heart of the city’s established antique district. It stands as one of the anchor stops for anyone building a serious Nashville antiquing itinerary, a scale few other Middle Tennessee shops can match.
