cosas bonitas, PERO....
ojo con el IVA, esta incluido en el precio publicado en la web y si te descuidas te lo calza en el pedido (vigilar esto). La dueña es una navarrica muy aguerrida, que además cobra por el envió un sobrecoste enorme, que luego te lo piensas y decides recogerlo tu directamente y pretende cobrarlo también aduciendote embalaje...
En fin, servicio muy montuno y poco , poquísimo profesional

anticuario legendario

Regarded as one of the most original and adventurous collectors and dealers of our time, Axel Vervoordt rightly considers himself an eclectic collector and dealer, who treasures the timeless and disdains the trendy. Vervoordt’s taste spans centuries, continents and economic strata, and his profound knowledge of this history of fine and applied arts has led him to create spaces in which his juxtaposition of objects from vastly different eras and cultures makes a strong and impressive statement on present and future interior taste. These juxtapositions should inspire contemplation and thus mental liberty.
Vervoordt cites three main strands of influence in his work. The first is that of contemporary and oriental art and arte povera, which to him signifies the importance of a life of meditation, empty space, a love and respect of nature and of human existence. The second is architecture, which represents proportion, balance and harmony, such as one might find in an 18th century library. The third strand is the baroque, either gilded and courtly, or more.

pop y vintage

Killer kitsch & super cool finds

RePop combines the overcrowded charm of an old-fashioned Parisian boutique with the promising clutter of a midwestern junk shop. It has both range (dolls’ heads, antique chemical bottles, taxidermy, ball gowns, mid-century-modern furnishings) and value. You might find a twentieth-century Danish lounge chair for under $300 or that human spine you’ve been looking for to round out your creepy-things collection. All the merchandise has been vetted for interest, so you’re spared picking through the bottom of boxes, and there are even artful window displays. On the first Friday of every month, there are art exhibitions by talented customers or Pratt students who live nearby

Close your eyes and picture Gage Street. There’s a queue outside Lan Fong Yuen with tourists scrambling for the vendor’s famous cup of tea. And there’re hawkers shouting next to pig carcasses and dying fish. Yes, there’s general commotion. But if you stroll down the slope towards Aberdeen Street, the hustle and bustle slowly dissipates into something… completely different. It all begins with a vintage motorcycle adorning a shop façade. Welcome to the super-cool General Store.

This neighbourhood-style boutique is every bit the antithesis of the blandness which its name suggests. It’s a shop that sells antiques and furniture from the 20th century American and European periods. Cool shoppers associate trendy and hip with the Noho area, and you would expect General Store to be there. So why is it on Gage Street instead, where 99 percent of shoppers are housewives trying to haggle down a $5 cucumber?

“Gage Street is the place where we feel like it represents the real Hong Kong. Some might hate the wet market but we just love the mix of culture [here]”, says Shelly Hayashi, owner of the General Store. Coming from a fashion background, Hayashi started a wholesale fashion business which she still runs. And the same taste for beauty now goes into her new boutique, showcasing the style of furniture that she loves.

This is definitely a place full of gems. From the modernist Danish designer Hans Wegner’s vintage sewing table to the 15th anniversary edition of the Fritz Hansen’s egg and the actual rendering work from Edward Wormley, you will be forgiven for mistaking this boutique as a small museum. “This store is a celebration of design. If people buy pieces from us, it shows they appreciate our taste and it all means a lot to me,” adds Hayashi.

Other than the designer pieces, the store also stocks small goods like the vintage hook ($350), rusty keys ($30), out-of-print books, art prints and photography to add finishing touches to your home. Interior design services are also available. Hayashi says: “A home can be made more human with the addition of one or two key pieces like this.” Cathy Chan

This shop can transform your home to make it resemble a Mad Men set. 1960 to 70s Bauhaus furniture comes mainly from Europe and the prices for cabinets, tables, sideboards and retro chairs are available on request (expect a price tag of more than $2,000 for a chair). A funky range of random collectibles such as Chinese propaganda memorabilia, vintage musical instruments and decorative figurines can also be found.
4 Sun St, Wan Chai, 2549 8800.

2nd Chance
Husband-and-wife duo Richard and Mavis opened 2nd Chance five years ago after finding it impossible to buy affordable furniture which isn’t made of cheap material. The company now buys unwanted furniture from home owners as well as shops that are closing down.
The 10,000sq ft showroom, with an additional 8,000sq ft of storage space, is choc-a-bloc with furniture that is either new (“You’ll be surprised how many people order furniture that can’t even fit through their front doors. Some of those mistakes end up here,” says Richard) or good quality second-hand furnishings.
Most of the furniture on offer is made of hard wood, and used goods are repaired and refurnished on-site. Some of them are even upcycled: a 30-year-old television cabinet is about to be transformed into a small bar on the day of our visit. And if you wish for your own purchases here to be upcycled, 2nd Chance can customise them for you too.
Prices for single beds start from $900, going all the way up to a queen-size bed complete with a Sealy mattress for just under $12,000. There are the sorts of Chinese dining table sets you see on Hollywood Road (from around $1,500), bedside cabinets from $400, as well as sideboards and bookshelves. Decorative pieces such as qing hua ci urns ($280), rugs, candle holders and lamps are available.
Unit 14, 2/F, Kin Fat Industrial Centre, 13 Kin Fat St, Tuen Mun, 2496 1222; 2ndchance.com.hk. Open 11am-7pm, closed Wed.

muebles s xx vintage

casaalmada.com

A Rua do Almada que era em tempos conhecida pela existência apenas de diversas lojas especializadas em ferragens tem vindo, nos últimos anos, a receber as novas tendências. Muita coisa mudou nas montras das lojas, já que agora se veem roupas estilizadas, discos de vinil e muita oferta cultural, numa nova zona de lojas alternativas com espaços inovadores.

Na Casa Almada vai surpreender-se ao encontrar mais do que uma mera loja de peças decorativas e de mobiliário ‘vintage’ oriundas de tempos passados, antes um ponto de encontro de pessoas muito diversas. Isto explica-se logo que entramos, confrontando-nos com uma diversidade de estilos, de cores, de padrões, de materiais.
É uma loja que mexe com diferentes sentimentos e emoções, saídos de cada peça que se vê ter uma identidade, uma história, envolta numa atmosfera própria do ambiente confortável deste espaço.
