Tamma’s Magic Mercantile

This is a great place for vintage furniture and other items. We’ll organized, good prices, and fantastic sales help. We had a great afternoon shopping here.

A lovely antique store with an eclectic collection of cool items. Amazing selection of crystals! Very nice customer service too.

I love This shop! The prices are great, the store is beautiful and everything is arranged very neatly. Tamma is so friendly, and she always makes a point of handing each of my children their purchases in his or her own bag. There is even an outdoor area with a whole different set of treasures. Next time you’re on 62, just stop in. You won’t be disappointed!

BEST PLACE EVER. WONDERFUL stuff, from Levi’s to Navajo Jewelry… i accidentally left my earrings there, called about two months later, and they were kind enough to mail them out. If you are an antique store, vintage goods lover, you must stop in here. their range of goods is ideal. if you want to spend less then 20.00 youll find something one of a kind and great, if you have more money to spend then you will find something that is incredible. I will always always come by here every single time I go to Joshua Tree and you should too, the only reason I was hesitant to write a review is because I dont want to world to know this secret.

I loved this antique store. I couldn’t stop buying things. They not only have good prices, but a HUGE selection and awesome artists around. I found a ton of great things for pretty much everybody I knew. The lady that ran the shop was fantastic as well.

I just received an email from «Tamma» that reads as follows:
«Kerri, what the heck, do you always go around talkin #@%$ about things you know nothing about? I would invite you to call me and I’l be glad to tell you why there is no longer a coleman museum, however, I would rather not waste my time talking to a racist, self serving num– skull like you. I have sugar coated this message for you as your feelings may get damaged. Change is growth, I have ran a sucessful business for 13 years and the removal of the museum was a business move that bettered my business. Sorry that it affected you to the point of no return. Have a NICE day Jack Ass»
Apparently, my joke about the Amish fell on deaf ears.
But a person would also have to be blind — and just plain dumb — to not only misinterpret that FOUR-​STAR-​RATING as an affront but also to go out of their way to harass and personally insult the stranger who «outed» their business on Unilocal as «my hands-​down favorite stop» with «awesome antiques… simply gawgeous vintage evening wear» … and summarized the enterprise as follows [and I quote] … «From the gorgeous lady (Tamma) who mans the cash register (and who always, always remembers us), to the outdoor scrap yard out back that always yields a rusty treasure or three, you can’t find prices and quality antique /​salvage goods like this anywhere else in the mojave.»
Racist?
Num-​skull [sic]?
Jack Ass?
It don’t take no genius to subtract one star for each of these.

Gorgeous treasures, great prices, and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. I purchased the most swanky sofa with modular wood end tables. A woman bagged the cushions for me and was cleaning the scuffs off the end tables AFTER we paid. They even helped us tarp and tie down the huge sofa in our truck. Made it all the way back to LA with an amazing mid century sofa… just needs a steam clean and polish on the end tables. I will get the foam cushions redone too, but I saved so much money on the sofa to begin with, it will still be a great price. Beautiful furnishings, jewelry and nick nacks! Great owners and staff!

I read the review prior to mine by Kerri T. — I would have loved to see the Coleman Museum! Sad. Stupid greedy Amish.
In any case, this was still an amazing antiques store. There was more old-​west and lacy ladies’ housewares than modernist goodies, but still lots of great finds. And the prices are right! I bought two beautiful beaded clutches and necklaces for under $ 40! People looking for cool pieces of kitsch for your garden or yard — this is your store!
