Antiques By Futura, established in 1992 on Santee's Mission Gorge Road, fills a 10,000-square-foot showroom and loft with antique furniture, vintage collectibles, and mid-century home decor sourced from estate sales, private collections, and regional picker networks across the Southwest. The on-site restoration shop repairs broken legs, split panels, and worn finishes on hardwood tables, chairs, dressers, and cabinets — structural joinery work that complements the new solid-wood inventory at Purewood Furniture further west on Mission Gorge Road. Seat-weaving services cover caning, rush, Danish cord, splint, and rattan techniques for antique and vintage chair frames requiring historically accurate material replacement rather than modern substitutes. The showroom also stocks vintage sewing machines, cameras, adding machines, typewriters, and other mechanical collectibles, forming a curated-objects market alongside the restored-appliance inventory at Goldsmith Appliance Sales and Repair on Mission Gorge Road. The most labor-intensive restorations involve full strip-and-refinish cycles on 19th-century case pieces — removing old lacquer or shellac down to bare wood, repairing dovetail joints and veneer delamination, and applying period-appropriate hand-rubbed oil or French-polish finishes.
