Arch 389

Arch 389 is a new vintage furniture shop next to the London Fields train station.  They’ve got a great mix of inventory (mid-century furniture, industrial lighting, antique fireplaces) as well as surprising random items like the horsehoe board below.

Definitely worth a visit next time you’re at Broadway Market.

Fall Picks, 2009

fall

With the cold air descending, I thought I’d share some of my picks to get us all settled in for the fall.  A thick scarf, woollen socks, a wall clock (clocks go back in a few weeks!), a tea cosy, and even a chair (get back to work, summer’s over!) – it’s all here.  I’ve come across quite a few lovely blankets – so watch this space for a ‘blanket round-up’ in the coming weeks!

From top left: Zeppelin print from Valero Doval, Pocket Shirt from Folk, grey scarf from Cos, orange clock by Naoto Fukasawa from twentytwentyone, Selvage Tug Wool bag by Bill Amberg, tea cosy by Labour and Wait, shoe trolleys from baileys home and garden, Chocolate Cable Knit socks by Paul Smith, Nos Da throw by Donna Wilson from SCP,  Gentleman’s Cap from Rapha, and Arris chair from MARK.

Trainspotters Make Good Salvage

I discovered Trainspotters when in a desperate search for lights for my new kitchen (now sold out).  They’ve got a nice selection of architectural salvage – including lighting, furniture, clocks and decorative bits.  They’ve got a good eye, the items are in good shape and their prices are pretty reasonable – unlike a lot of salvage places.  And if you ever need an enormous ‘marine spot light‘ then this is the place to go!
