Keil's Antiques

My wife ans I bought a beautiful bronze chandelier for our bedroom remodel. When we walked into the store we had no idea where to start. Their beautiful and varied inventory was almost overwhelming. One of the sales representatives, Roberta, immediately approached us and spent the next hour pleasantly guiding and making suggestions until we found the perfect fixture. Checking out was a breeze. Leila offered to hold our chandelier until our project was ready. When we contacted Ms Roberta shipping was fast and efficient. The chandelier was expertly packed in a custom wooden crate and delivered to our door by Mr. Randy Daigrepoint. The end to end service at Keils was beyond 5 stars. We will definitely patronize the shop in that future.

I love Keil's! We visit every time we are in New Orleans. Donna has helped me pick out some beautiful pieces and even helped me find the perfect ring for my daughter's senior ring (instead of a class ring). The staff is so kind, knowledgeable and helpful. I always look forward to browsing their amazing selection. Go check them out. You will not be disappointed!

I have nothing but lovely things to say about this store and staff! They know their antiques and they have wonderful items to choose from. I’ll cherish the bracelet I purchased! Roberta was so helpful and they ship items out of state.

We were in New Orleans on holiday several years ago and went into Keil's to find a signet ring. The man (owner?) behind the counter was extremely helpful, and I found the ring I wanted, but it was too large. He was able to have it sized by the next day, and it fit perfectly. I loved the Latin inscription engraved in the intaglio - "It must be tried." He was impressed I could read Latin (what's a high school education for?). he also had it shipped to me making the purchase more convenient. I'll be send him a photo of an Edwardian necklace pendant to see if he can match it or find one similar. After leaving the store, we went to their antique furniture store where we found a large, late 18th-early 19th banker's box, and also a gorgeous 18th century Chinese red lacquer low table. We bought both, and they were shipped to us (no damage) and arrived a few days after we returned home. The fun of shopping at Keil's added greatly to our vacation in one of the best American cities. 9/18/2024: After an exchange of emails, I shipped the necklace to Keil's to have a pendant added to replace the missing center pendant. The match is Perfect. One would be hard pressed to tell this isn't the original. My wife will be thrilled when she sees it. This is the excellent service and the fabulous selection that Keil's has on hand in their lovely jewelry store. Donna Martz was a pleasure to work with.

As an fine art and auctioneer, we had to pop in. They have an exceptional range of French and English antiques at very good prices. Fantastic staff too, thanks to Roberta for looking after us. Until next time.

My favorite place for antique jewelry! They carry such lovely pieces and will go out of their way to meet your needs (i.e., if you want French wires instead of posts or you lose a stone in a necklace). Worth a trip to check them out!💕

I fell in love with Keil's the moment I walked in. The staff is incredible and the antique merchandise is breathtaking. I feel as though I'm royalty transported back in time while I'm shopping. Lifetime customer!

To the other reviewers that say that the workers wouldn't talk to you, were rude, or watched you too closely.....here's why! (See photo) Just one chandelier is priced at $185,000. If I were the business owner, I would be the same with all of the drunks off Bourbon coming into my store...lol This place is where kings shop, obviously. I don't know who can afford it. But, it was interesting to walk through and gasp at the beauty. Just don't touch anything, and don't expect to get treated like a customer unless you are dripping with money.

It is fitting that Keil's is on Royal street, each piece inside is fit for a Queen, or King. If you are after quality antiques to decorate your home with, I highly encourage you to stop in to Keil's. With 4 continuous generations in the business, these are the experts you want to speak with for all things antique. Situated on four levels, one dedicate to French décoré, another dedicated to English, you are sure to find the commode, semainier, chaise ou chandelier you have been searching for to complete you decorating style. Should furniture not be what you're after, don't worry, Keil's has a fabulous and I mean stunning collection of jewels! Emeralds, Rubies, Diamonds and Pearls. Cuffs, bracelets and chandelier earrings to add sparkle to your life. Gents, they even have the most beautiful cuff links I have ever seen. You need them, get 'em! Staff is extremely friendly and patient. My husband and I were allowed time to walk the floor without being hovered over but able to ask questions when curious about certain pieces. No pressure put on us to purchase right away. In fact, the owners are very experienced with shipping nationally and are familiar with other reputable antique businesses. Including one I frequent in California. If you've ever moved in the world of antiques, you definitely want to buy from a shop that knows other top antique owners in the nation! Keil's is definitely going to be my go-to when it comes time to decorate our home. They will definitely be my new favorite place decorate my fingers and ears too!! I love a good statement piece.

Our third time in New Orleans, our third time at Keils, our third time being assisted by Roberta. Another amazing purchase! We hadn't been there for years and yet she remembered and she knew what we would like. I can't say enough good things about how lucky Keils is to have such a talented, kind employee. We returned yet again because of the fabulous service and the beautiful antique jewelry.

Popped in on a rainy Thursday to look at some beautiful rings I saw on the window. Employees were rude, dismissive, and one associate immediately started following my boyfriend (who is black, I am white for full disclosure ) around the store while staring daggers at him. If you don't want customers, don't be open. Disgusting.

Cool spot for things like celebrity autographed posters and photos. Saw autographed photos by Tina Turner, Mariah Carey, Justin Timberlake, etc. Would make great gifts for super fans.

Like many of the antiques shops along Royal, Keil's caters to a higher-end crowd with some eye-poppingly expensive furniture. But it was deservedly so; they pick good quality stuff to put in their showroom, and I'm sure they're doing well for themselves. I had to make myself leave before a pocket watch might have decided to follow me home ... and the next time I'm in town I'll tempt myself again in here.

Amazing place. Followed another review about this place and Roberta Ramsdell. Went there for jewels and stayed for the furniture. Bought a piece and she arrange shipping. I will absolutely go back next time I am in town.

A wonderful find on Royal Street, where we had a terrific experience thanks to Roberta Ramsdell. Incredibly warm, down-to-earth, and gracious, she spent so much time with me and my daughter. In a place that could seem intimidating, she instead shared all of the beautiful treasures behind the jewelry counter with appreciation and enthusiasm. We highly recommend this store thanks to Roberta's grace, humor, and incredible customer service!

We went window shopping for antique engagement rings and found ours here! Roberta helped us try on a few. She even remembered an intial price inquiry email I'd sent her a couple months earlier. We live in Atlanta & she helped coordinate staggered payments and shipping. They also carry some more affordable new rings made in vintage styles. We actually only looked at jewelry, which is right by the front - so I can't really comment on the rest of the store, but the service we received was great & we are very happy with the purchase.
