Vintage Shopping Stop – Streamline Antiques

MY VERY FIRST RETRO ROADMAP WRITEUP -- coming up on TWELVE YEARS AGO!!! Still open! 

Streamline Antiques is a cozy shop nestled in Dorchester Lower Mills, just across from the historic Walter Baker Chocolate Factory (now apartments & artist lofts). Lynda Watson has owned the shop for the past 14 years and sells an eclectic array of reasonably prices smalls, "from deco to disco".

She's got:

Vintage Jewelry - Bakelite, sterling

Vintage Barware - chrome, cocktail, swizzles

Vintage Clothing & Accessories - purses, hats, compacts

Vintage Kitchenware &  textiles

I love to visit it whenever I'm in the area since it's easy to get to from the 'burbs and so much more interesting than the mall!

Make a destination date of it and have an ice cream around the corner at The Ice Creamsmith or grab a cuppa at the Flat Black Coffee Company . Stop into Dark Horse Antiques for larger antique pieces.  Easily accessible, it's just a quick turn off of 93 or 128. Or take the Red Line/Ashmont to the Milton stop.
