Since 1989 Ernest Johnson has been offering discriminating clients a select inventory of fine 18th & 19th century English & Continental Furniture & Accessories, and over the years has established a reputation of having what is arguably the premier antiques shop in Ottawa.

Ernest Johnson is a former Sotheby's.Com Associate and is a member of the Canadian Antiques Dealers Association (C.A.D.A.), which is a government chartered organization established in 1967 that represents approximately 50 members nationwide.
