Crystal Palace Antiques & Modern, SE19

Billed as South London's Largest Antiques Emporium it was no surprise how much I loved Crystal Palace Antiques & Modern

This fantastic multi-storied twisty-turny location offers antiques spanning all the best vintage furniture eras - a treasure trove of older pieces and the modern twentieth century very well represented too. Different countries are also covered - with this Vintage Russian circus poster one of my favourites finds...

And (also as expected!) it was the slink mid-century pieces that caught this intrepid fantasy shopper's eye...


But there were plenty more older pieces to fit any tastes, as you can spot in this pic of the lovely Laura modelling some reclaimed school coat hooks...

But for me the more modern furniture was far too hard to resist...nice yellow accents, walnut and black metal here...wouldn't say no to these!


And even more proper classics...


Plus some amazing vintage maps...

I also love that the posh signage bears a reminder that you are still in South London...and Crystal Palace FC land of course too...

A definite must visit if you are looking for well-chosen antique finds or (like muggins here) if you are just a sucker for a good browse.
