History

Our Founders quite literally bumped into each other while out treasure hunting, and discovered a common interest in old, unique, and well loved pieces. After a couple of years collecting, they ran out of room & decided to open a store where they could share all of the really great finds. Each piece has a different story, some are known, some they try to guess or piece together, and some, well you could just say are a tad bit... Checkered... Oddly enough, those are the ones most everyone finds the most interesting!

Specialties

Unique among Antique stores, Our Checkered Pasts offers a boutique shopping experience where you will find Victorian antiques, Art Deco, vintage kitchen, Primitives, vintage costume jewelry, and lots more displayed in creative & attractive vignettes styled by our interior designer. Inventory changes daily... what's here today could very well be gone tomorrow!

We were headed to Omaha and figured we would stop in and check it out. Nothing at all worth buying.
