3 days to go!

Hello! Just a few days to wait now until our brand new Stoke Newington market finally arrives!

A little about some of the new stallholders we've got - firstly House of Amelia will be selling quirky and kitsch homewares and furniture such as these wonders below:



We're also looking forward to having Scavengers on board, North London based dealers who very cleverly restore and replenish many of the items they find - they have all sorts of gorgeous and unusual one off items like 1930's plate racks, Victorian glass domes, as well as some classic items like this beauty of a suitcase below:


Thanks again to Time Out for featuring the market - there is already a big buzz surrounding our new venue, we hope you can make it to Stoke Newington to take a peek at some of our brilliant vendors!

We'll be at Stoke Newington Library Gallery this Saturday July 2nd from 11-5pm - see you there!

Cafe Vintage at North London Vintage Market this Saturday

We're very pleased to have the excellent Cafe Vintage selling clothing at our new Stoke Newington market this Saturday July 2nd.  

Having opened late last year just down the road near Finsbury Park, they've already established a fantastic line in combining sumptuous baked goods and cosy tea room settings with some great quirky collectables, hand picked vintage dresses and orginal retro garb.  

No wonder they're always packed out whenever we walk past and Mary Portas rates them - we think what they do is fab and are looking forward to seeing what gorgeous garments they bring this Saturday!

Thankings....and hello to Stoke Newington!

A big thankyou to everybody who came to the market last Saturday June 4th - the sensationally warm weather made parks and seaside trips a pretty alluring alternative option for Vitamin D deprived Londoners, so we were really happy so many of you still made it!


We had an excellent day and it was exciting to welcome some new traders like Malmo and Moss aboard too, always fun to have a good old nose at the eclectic items new folk can bring in to the mix. We aim to circulate our stallholders and always have a few new faces each time to make each market that bit different.


Aside from that, we have NEWS, quite big news actually that we're expanding right out over North London and have decided to bring our vintage wonder wares to STOKE NEWINGTON!


If you don't know it, Stokey is a quaint wee hood, in the same vein as Crouch End and with some very appealing cafes, parks and independent shops along the main Church Street drag.
What's more, we've decided to land there pretty soon - Saturday July 2nd to be exact, which is yes, is pretty soon, huzzah! We'll be holding it in the endearing Stoke Newington Library Gallery, which is an oft overlooked yet lovely space just seconds from Church Street and nestled behind the library itself.  Clissold Park is also a mere 2 minutes away for an post rummage ice cream and greenery, we think it's the perfect spot for a vintage bonanza - check our map here

The market will run 11-5pm with the same range of dazzling vintage homeware, collectables, mid century ceramics, fabrics, curiosities and more.


Flyer to come shortly, slip that date in your diaries and get spreading the word to vintage fiends - we're back in Crouch End on October 1st now, so this is your chance to get a summer fix!


More details to follow shortly, don't forget you can also follow us on Twitter for more updates @NLvintagemarket

Tomorrow...


Our June market has crept up...we're back in just 24 hours at St Mary's Parish Hall, Crouch End from 10-4.30pm!  

The forecast is a gorgeous 25 degrees so don't miss the stunning views from Alexandra Palace Park later on, an excellent picnic spot a short walk from the venue - perfect for a post vintage foraging debrief!

We'll also have refreshments to keep you cool as well as some delectable cakes and savouries from DoesFood

Our summer event will be a proper fiesta of vintage ceramics, mid century collectables, furniture, fabrics, clothing, jewellery, books and all sorts of unique curiosities from the late 1800's to the 1970's, really a one stop shop for super original (and affordable) goods for the home and wardobe - often cheaper than the high street and the real vintage deal!

Our last market attracted over 1000 vintage enthusiasts from all over the capital and beyond - hope to see you there to help make this one even bigger and better than the last!

Vintage wonder available from 10am, don't miss out!
