Whether it’s a loud and bold piece of 50s Bitossi Blue, or a patinated rosewood grandfather’s chair, I’m there. And yes, my home is pretty eclectic!

There are so many great vintage stores, our region is full of them, and they are all fabulous. I couldn’t do what I do without some of those who have kept their businesses going this year by selling online - they all deserve a shoutout – and I guarantee you will find something magical at each and every one. That’s the joy of vintage.

So I’m going to cheat a little with my picks….. Because you need to know this info! You do!

Of the locals, first up for any vintage-lover has to be the Maldon Antique Fair. It. Is. The. Best. You just have to plan around a weekend in February here so you can get there early. And go twice.
