Silver Creek Antique and Estate

Silver Creek Antique & Estate has been providing the unique and beautiful since 1938.

Our antique shop is located in the hamlet of Locust Valley on the North Shore of Long Island. Our wide variety of fine antiques, artwork, decorative accessories and unusual collectibles has made us a favorite among discerning collectors.

We supply many of the top New York interior designers with hard-to-find, perfect finishing touches for their design projects.

Silver Creek was honored to help HBO create "The Gilded Age" by providing period props for the series which won an Emmy Award for their beautiful set design - featuring many items from Silver Creek.

We offer full service, personalized, luxury estate auction services to assist you in selling your home's contents whether you are moving, downsizing, or responsible for the disposition of the estate of a loved one. We carefully review your items with you to ascertain if they are best suited for auction or for sale in the shop.

We accept only a few auctions a year allowing us to give your auction extreme attention to detail and to make the pick up as smooth as possible.

SHIPPING

We are happy to work with all of our buyers facilitating shipping of their items.

Items under 12": USPS

If you have a small item, under 12", we can ship through the Auction Ninja USPS portal. They will send you a second invoice for cost of shipping.

Items over 12": UPS

If you have an item larger than 12" we work with UPS and YOU.

First, it is your responsibility to arrange the shipment through UPS by telephoning them and giving them the item details that are found on the auction page and your zip code. UPS will collect your item and pack and ship it for you. All charges for this are paid by you and are between you and UPS.

UPS CONTACT: (516) 741-6245.

IMPORTANT: You must notify us that you are having your item shipped after you won your item.

MOVING SERVICES:

We have local movers who work with us who can handle the Tri-State area and the East End of Long Island.

F. Trucking: 516-532-1191 (call and text to reach him)

It is your responsibility to make arrangements with the local movers and NOTIFY US and we will make arrangements for pick up times. We understand they don't work on Sundays.

NATIONWIDE:

You can contact the U-Ship to arrange long distance moving.

Plycon Shipping is another resource.

Again, we will make it happen for you - but you have to arrange it, pay for it and confirm it with the movers/shippers. We are not responsible for any item that may be damaged during shipment.
