Do the Fandango

Fandango is a shop that anyone with an interest in 20th Century furniture should know about.

The showroom in based in Islington just off Essex Road and holds an ever changing collection of retro Furniture - oodles of fabulous 1950s Danish teak, Lighting - everything from 60s metal shades to neon signs in Korean and Japanese, and an array of Decorative items like vintage antlers (possibly a nod to the shop next door taxidermy specialist Get Stuffed).

I was really pleased to find this shop that cares for these 20th Century classics so well. The owners not only use these wonderful taste to make them a perfect outlet to find 1950s Hans Wegner in great shape, but they also decorate the slim-line showroom with their products in a way that always make me smile when I pass.

Currently coveting: this Italian Satin Wood Sideboard
