Description
As you walk into 20th Century Scandinavia you can smell the furniture polish… and as you move further into the store you will see staff rubbing that furniture polish onto one of that many superlative pieces of furniture housed in this den of wonders. There are tables, armchairs, lamps, desks, buffets (even some with those magical disappearing doors), sideboards, hat stands and cabinets all hailing from a bygone Scandinavia. Out the back you will find loads of chairs, tables, chests of drawer and a vintage pinball machine.

Description
Rewind – The Old, The Odd & The New is a cacophony of colours and textures. The beautiful selection is sourced from around the world – leather boots from Italy, elegant French delights and reworked Japanese items line the walls of this fabulous little vintage store on Lygon Street. Every piece in store has been washed, dry cleaned, repaired and restored. The age of stock varies with most items having been created between the years of 1940 -1980.

Description
The Brotherhood of St Laurence stands as proof that not for profit stores needn’t lack character or charm as this store has both in abundance. This opportunity store has really upped its game since last time I visited with a fabulous Hunter Gather ‘fancy section’ at the front of the store, which features an array of fashionable and popular items – fur jackets, dresses, blouses, suitcases, lamps & dressers – hand-picked from the larger BSL collection. The general stock includes books, bags, scarfs hats, shoes, clothing, homewares, furniture, linen, children’s wear, sunglasses, artwork and much more.

This Sunday I took a trip to Brunswick to check out Harry Wragg’s warehouse sale. As you would expect, it was far less glamourous than their city store (recently reviewed on VM – Harry Wragg CBD). Outside there were boxes of stock at bargain prices, meanwhile inside things were far more organised, with racks full of stock at slightly higher prices but requiring far less rummaging.
