About Us

Welcome to the website of Asian Rarities Enterprises, Inc., formerly known as R&D Antiques and Oriental Art. We are now listed under our official corporate name, and if you were forwarded to this site from www.randdorienalart.com, please be assured that we are the same owners as before and will be listing the same quality antiques and art as before. Our business was officially established in Texas in 1973, and we have continued over the years to develop our knowledge and expertise as collectors and dealers in Oriental treasures, antique clocks, and a full range of two and three dimensional art. Our favorite collectibles have been Japanese netsuke and other types of carvings from ivory, stone, wood and jade. We also have an affinity for original bronze sculptures, vases, and incense burners.

We have been located in many of the finest antique malls in the Dallas area since 1987, but are now within several gallery-type spaces in a single mall at High Street in Plano, Texas. We highly recommend that you visit High Street if you have an interest in almost any type of antiques, collectibles, furniture or accessories for the home or business. Most people that visit the mall for the first time express their amazement at the variety and quality of the merchandise on display and for sale by more than a hundred dealers. They say, “We never knew this place existed before now” and that they “Think it is a great place to shop”.

Even when we are not at High Street in person, visitors can learn a lot by browsing the various booths and numerous showcases where we (and other dealers) exhibit and sell quality antiques and collectibles. When you visit there, just ask anyone at the front desk for D. J. or Rhonda, and they will let you know if we are there. If not, someone will always be available to answer questions or open showcases for you to examine and items that you have an interest in seeing up close.
