Stella Blunt

I love looking at this shop, usually through the window because it is hardly ever open. The shop mainly deals with antique furniture but has other bits and pieces as well. The best thing about the place is that everything is of a good quality, the worst thing is that it just isn’t very cheap.
I had my eye on a very simply designed old school chair, unfortunately it was about 70 pounds. I guess for people with a disposable income that wouldn’t be a problem, at least your getting a quality product, albeit simply and small.
The shop is located on Broadway Market and is well suited amongst all the other specialty shops on the strip. Even if you are just going to browse, you will have a nice time just being around all the lovely items in the shop.
Stella herself is always around to give advice and point you in the right direction. It is nice to talk to her as she is obviously passionate about what she does.
Opening hours are few and far between. Maybe if you head down for the Saturday market you can take the time to pop in to Stella Blunt.

This little shop is one of the many that have cropped up in the area in the last 4 – 5 years.
Broadway market has changed and grown to such a size that almost everything can be bought here now. It has become so popular with its cafes, boutiques and amazing selection of foods available on Saturdays.
This shop of vintage objects and furniture has a cute handpicked selection of different pieces from lots of eras from art deco mirrors to 50’s tables –but at a price.
It amazes me that just down the road close to the tube and with easy public transport service available in Bethnal Green a 50s coffee table can barely demand £30.00 yet this area now has such a“cool” factor that the same table could show up in a place like Stella Blunts and command £200.00 !!
There were alot of special pieces which granted have value — but a 50s wood irregular wood table for £280.00 is high — but incredible too if it is selling — it just shows how much this area has changed and is now perceived.

I wish I could live in an antique store sometimes. They’re always packed full of delightful little bits and pieces that I’d love to have in my home. Stella Blunt is packed full of said quirky pieces — chairs, stools, lamps, lamps and even old school Coke Bottle Holders…
Located in Broadway Market, it’s the perfect mix of gloriously antique and East-​End grit, which makes it all the more cool. Check it out.

Stella Blunt is at the end of Broadway Market next to London fields, I regularly pass by and have a look at what’s on offer. If I had the money I would be constantly shopping for antiques for my house. Anything and everything from old bar stools, reclaimed oak tables, metal signs, beautiful rustic lamps and antique bird cages fill the tiny shop and spill out onto the pavement.
It’s not cheap so don’t come looking for rock bottom prices, but if you’re looking for something unusual, or just fancy a mooch, I’d recommend dropping in.
