It's an explosion of scents and colours waiting for you on Columbia Road.

The merchants shout in a terribly authentic atmosphere. Londoners like to come here on Sundays, stroll through the surrounding streets, have a coffee, enjoy the small shops that are typical of the area..

London has two major street markets: Camden and Portobello. Opened in 1837, Portobello owes its reputation to the antique dealers who sell rare and antique objects here that are impossible to find elsewhere. The market is divided into three parts, south on the Notting Hill side, you find antiques with a general clothing market, a bazaar in the streets and, north to the Ladbroke Grove metro, it is the area reserved for flea markets and clothes. Different atmospheres to discover.

With a name like that! And in French too... Like the store itself, this crazy, quirky and funny name literally translates into über cool. Here, you'll find rococo decor in vogue in London: moose heads, kitsch porcelain, knick-knacks from Granny's and Art Deco furniture. A crazy mix of all styles and eras. Vintage that's been going strong for over 25 years. If you're looking for the unusual, this is the place to go!

This little gem of a store at the start of Columbia Road is always packed with vintage Londoners in search of china or retro knick-knacks. From kitschy tea sets to rusty gardening tools and rustic kitchen utensils, there's plenty of charm at reasonable prices. At the back, the room has been fitted out to accommodate a few tables where you can come and take a break over tea and a good carrot cake on Saturdays or Sundays. Between the seventies tablecloths, the homemade cake and the ambient serenity, you'll feel right at home.

Wedgwood is a company specialized in fine porcelain founded in 1759. His founder is Josiah Wedgwood known as the father of English pottery.

Wedgwood has thus been synonymous with beauty, art and innovation for 250 years. Known for its legendary blue, the brand rejuvenated its image with a new Jasper Conran stylist. The result is traditional dishes embedded in a pure and elegant line.
