Ring Road Antique Centre

A ten-dealer antique centre gathered under one roof on the edge of New Norfolk, half an hour up the Derwent from Hobart. The stock leans hard into Tasmanian and colonial furniture — cedar chests with Huon pine secondaries, blackwood hall stands, mahogany chiffoniers, pine dressers and Tasmanian oak tables — alongside Victorian, Edwardian and Art Nouveau washstands, cast-iron pieces and the small collectables that reward a slow lap of the room. With ten sellers trading side by side the range shifts constantly, so it rewards a proper browse rather than a quick look through the door. A serious stop for anyone furnishing an old house or hunting a particular period piece.
