Retail Therapy

While Atlanta’s upscale Buckhead neighborhood has long been a destination for fashionistas and is home to three high-end shopping complexes that have earned it the nickname “the Rodeo Drive of the South,” the city is also a hotspot for collectors drawn to its concentration of antique shops and markets. Scott Antique Market, self-proclaimed as “America’s Favorite Treasure Hunt,” is the world’s largest, monthly-indoor antique show. Shopping collectives and co-operative showrooms across the city feature the works of local artisans and provide a place to incubate local talent.
