Portobello Road & Camel Antiques

The pick of the pickers!
I think this is my favorite out of all the stores in the Georgian Village (a more high end Antique Mall). There were so many items (bed frames, dressers, couches, chandeliers and more) to «ooh» and «aah» over and they have a lovely little courtyard with outdoor/​garden antiques, statues, and the like.
I found the perfect painted wooden desk here. Green, hand painted details, pristine condition. I *had* to ask. «Oh,» the really nice owner said, half sighing, «that’s really expensive, it’s three thousand…» (and maybe more hundreds in there but I stopped listening after «thousand»). I really do need to keep in mind that when nothing has price tags on it, it’s probably out of my budget. I did see a really pretty stripped cream Victorian couch that was a steal at the quoted price, but I had visions of my cats claiming it as their own scratching post, so I decided to rethink that choice.
