Empire Revival

Empire Revival Empire Revival (previously trading as Paddington Antique Centre) is over 1000 sqm of dynamic retail Our brief is to help customers celebrate their own style.

Empire Revival is inside the heritage-listed Plaza Theatre, an astonishing art deco building constructed in 1929. It is now one of only two ‘atmospheric’ theatre buildings remaining in Australia. We pride ourselves on our industry knowledge and personal service. We won't tell you what you need, we'll help you find what you like.

A little bit Alice in Wonderland, a little bit enchanted forest… and a whole lot of “ooh, what’s that?” 🍄🐸✨
Our new counter display has gone properly whimsical — toadstools, drip-glaze pottery, curious critters and a few wonderfully odd little treasures.
Down the rabbit hole we go… 🐇
