Mehmet Kral expands antique shop in Akçakoca to 200 square meters
Mehmet Kral, an antique dealer in the Akçakoca Historical Neighborhood Market in Düzce, has expanded his business from a single square meter to a 200-square-meter shop. Operating under the slogan ‘Eski olsun, benim olsun’ (Let it be old, let it be mine), Kral specializes in items that connect visitors to the past.
The collection includes artifacts up to 150 years old, including pieces from the Gallipoli Campaign of World War I. One notable item, a caravan from that era, is kept strictly for exhibition purposes and is not for sale.
Kral does not source his inventory from other antique dealers; instead, he acquires items directly from customers through sales and trades. The shop features a wide variety of nostalgic objects, ranging from gas lamps to heavy iron weights, often evoking personal memories for visitors.
