Take subway (MRT) to Kamphaengpet Station (station before Bangsue, the end station) and opposite Or Tor Kor, the famous Thai farmers market. Also station for getting to Chatuchak Weekend Market.

Opposite Or Tor Kor (on Kam Phaeng Pet Road, on the corner to Kamphaengpet 2 road) you will find small shop houses with old furniture. After that turn left on Kam Paeng Phet 2 road. First you will come to a large new building called InSquare. Its a new wholesale clothing market, but empty. After InSquare, you will come to a large row of small frontshops. Behind these frontshops is another 3-storey building/market which is mainly unknown - it is located opposite the main entrance to Chatuchak weekend market (I have momenaritly forgotten the name of the building), but inside is many furniture shops, and you may find what you are looking for. If not, continue to Chatuchak Plaza and JJ Mall on the other side, i.e. on the same side as the weekend market, here some shops are also dealing in new/old furntiture. All the mentioned markets/places/shops/malls are open daily

Please notice that there are several Kamphaengpet named roads around, and I have spelled them in different ways if you are trying to do some search for them yourself. Names in Bangkok are often spelled in many different ways, like Chatuchak, Jatuchak, Jatujak, etc on offical signs

Give it a try

Try chutuchuk . There are furniture sellers both inside and surrounding the markets. Most of it would be "replica" however as i would suspect any genuine antiques that were ever in Thailand would have been either discovered and shipped to the markets where its value would be recognized , or destroyed.
