Asian Collections is headquartered in San Diego, California. We directly import antique furniture and accessories from China. Our authentic, elaborate selections and collections of antiques span from the 18th century through early 20th century. Each piece has a unique flair that emphasizes both practicality and ornament, and adds a new accent to your home. As the premier source of Chinese antiques and accessories, we have a complex chain of antique scouts that are constantly traveling towns and villages in search for antique furniture and accessories that are worth collecting. The valuable antiques are then transported to our China warehouse, where they are carefully restored to preserve the antiques' authenticity and originality using age-old traditional techniques and natural materials.

"Dear Tracy,
We want to thank you for the wonderful experience we had in your store recently. We actually found you by accident when leaving another establishment in the area. When we saw the name, Asian Collections, we decided to change our plans and at least poke our heads in the door. Well, the few minutes we thought we'd spend turned into much more than that. What a beautiful store!
From the moment we stepped in the door, we were transported to another place and time. From hand carved doors to historic wall panels, ceramics and stone carvings to ornately decorated Tibetan chests, antique altar tables and chairs to bronzeware and jewelry boxes, the inventory was fantastic! We found ourselves walking the aisleways over and over because our eyes discovered new items with each pass. Your store is really more like a museum with you, as its curator, and we felt very fortunate to have what amounted to a private showing. We've always enjoyed Asian cultures and the long history of artistic beauty that is found in every aspect of life. Your expert commentary on various items and our conversations on dynastic periods made some of our time with you like a favorite history class. We appreciated hearing how your business began, coming to life through your passionate love for the objects that surrounded you while living in China and your desire to share them with others. This love and interest that you have is evident in your store and the light in your eyes. You were so helpful, discussing ideas with us, patiently listening to our possible plans and making suggestions that were new and exciting. It was another surprise to learn that furniture can be designed and made to order, along with requests for particular items. The possibilities really come close to endless with these exceptional services.
We've put Asian Collections on our list of favorites and are awaiting the arrival of your next shipment of treasures. We wish you every success and count ourselves fortunate to have found you, or rather, fortunate to have been guided to your doorstep!"

"My daughter and I had a wonderful experience at Asian Collections in the showroom on Miramar Road.
Asian Collections has a great variety of authentic, well presented and beautiful Asian furniture and household items, complemented by a staff of warm and polite people with a genuine and deep knowledge of the pieces ¨C their age, origin, materials, manufacture, and histories.
Aside from the unique and attractive character of the items themselves, it was fascinating speaking with such knowledgeable people, offering a true glimpse into the heritage, culture and people of China, and Asia in general.
It was a real pleasure being able to introduce a part of this proud and ancient culture into my home, knowing the piece was the genuine article with a real history, and that we could add to it at anytime with the help of our new friends at Asian Collection.
Furthermore, I look forward to passing the pieces I have purchased at Asian Collections onto my daughter, with their stories and quality intact, and given she was adopted from China, they will no doubt become a special part of our family for generations to come."

"I was very pleased in visiting Asian Collections to find an assortment of Asian decorative pieces of furniture and artwork. I was even more excited to learn that pieces could be custom made. I saw a display case that was great but it was not as large as I would have liked. Tracy Wu, the owner, immediately told me that I could design a piece to our liking. Tracy and I worked together on measurements and design and the display case arrived from China three months later. It was perfect for the space where it was needed as well as functional. I have received many compliments on its uniqueness, quality and style. I would highly recommend talking with Tracy regarding your personal needs and design for a specialized selection of furniture."

I have been a lover of Asian antique furniture for many years and spent weekends browsing Asian Import stores until I found "Asian Collection".
I found everything what I was looking for in one place and I what I needed was not there, it was costume ordered for me and delivered within a month's time. I love my collection I bought and receive many compliment from family and friends visiting my home. Not only can one find what they are looking for but the owners Tracy and Jeff have provided me with excellent customer care. Because they listen to the client needs , they are able to suggest and provide exactly what the client wants. What is best of all is that the prices are better than most places I have visited and the quality is exquisite.
I will be back for more furnishing and beautiful accent pieces.
Thank you Tracy and Jeff for providing the best San Diego has to offer."
