Naples Antiques and Estate Services is a small, owner-run shop in Naples, Florida, for people who like their things with a little history attached — and for families who suddenly have a house full of history and need someone honest to call.

The name says what we do. Half of the business is the shop — antiques chosen one at a time — and the other half is estate work: helping a family deal with a lifetime of belongings in a way that makes the process easier, not harder.
Chris grew up in Naples, which counts for more in this trade than it sounds. He knows which neighborhoods went up in which decade, what the first owners brought down with them from the north, and what is likely to be standing in the dining room of a house that hasn't changed hands in forty years. For more than 15 years he has been walking through those houses — opening the sideboard, turning the chairs over, reading the backs of the paintings — and sorting the handful of things that matter from the many that don't.
The shop grew out of that work: the pieces on the floor are the ones too good to send anywhere else. Call, write or walk in and it's Chris you'll be talking to, and the opinion you get about what a thing is, and what it's worth, is his own.
The shop is in the Shirley Street design district, inside the gallery of Sharon Lynch Collections — original floral paintings on the walls, antiques underneath them. It makes for a very good hour. Hours and directions.
Jewelry, gold, watches and coins are handled by our jewelry branch, Naples Estate Jewelry — so when a whole estate needs sorting, nothing in it is left without a home.
We buy single pieces and entire estates — antiques, silver, art, and furniture. Honest evaluations, free of charge and free of pressure.
