I hardly even thought this store would be worth visiting again until I'd come to the very end... and then things started to get interesting... This is where some intriguing antiques are to be found. Old pictures, and books, and mirrors... but for the crème de la crème of this place, don't miss the treasures on display in the (locked) large china cabinet in the right-hand corner - full of whimsical antique curiosities. Ms. Phillips also takes commissions for interior design... not only using the sort of items you see in her shop, but also using some of her own original designs and any individually specified piece.

It may seem odd to give this delicious little store 5 stars but ultimately when one is shopping in London a calm sanctuary is always preferable to west london crazy.

Like other discount stores, you can walk in not knowing what brands to expect. Because of the variety and size differences between brands, the racks are always a mess.

The selection is a mix of new and antique, and nothing is particularly large (except for the tables on which piles and more piles of smaller items lie) - instead, come here for something unique to accessorize or fill that empty space. The guy who runs the shop is very friendly and usually willing to negotiate on prices.

The worst business to deal with. Bought a mirror from there to be shipped overseas, with the…read morepromise it will be shipped either via UPS or DHL and within 2-3 weeks (should be with me), a month later still not shipped. They came up with silly excuses each time and ended up shipping it with a different company. On arrival, they promised it will be delivered to our doorstep however we have to deal with customs. Which added up to another total that's the same price of the mirror itself. They said all fees are included in shipping however I've had to pay handling and delivery order fees on arrival. When I asked for a refund they accused me of lying and denied making those statements. Piece of advice, don't buy from them, they're liars.

In the process of feng shuiing the wild mess of space, I'll probably have to go to Octopus and clear it of all its home goods from brightly colored, wavy-shaped chests of drawers to cheese grater women to mirrors lined in folded bits of magazine. While I was at it, I'll probably buy them clear out of doll-eye earrings encased in Bowie-esque sparkly baubles, umbrellas with the heads and feet of a ladies and, for good measure, the baby spoons that have airplane wings. In short, I love this place and I love everything in it and it makes my knees quiver with adrenaline every time I set foot and hand and soul in the store. It's actually a painful experience because while the stuff is quite reasonable, its not cheap enough for me to buy like confetti to throw in the air with joy. The store is actually the English version of the French store/company Pylones. Their creations are among the zaniest, brainiest most creative, innovative items to grace the shop shelves of today's commercial world. Somebody quick get me to help for my Pylonoctophile disorder!1

The items on sale are not always totally cohesive with each other but there are some very nice things alongside some slightly less nice things. The absolute highlight of the shop for me are the display cases of antique eastern foreign jewellery. I have not seen such stunning and unique pieces this side of Marrakech, and fell absolutely in love with them. Unfortunately this part of the shop is not in keeping with the price range of the other products, The Jewellery is expensive but well worth its price and beautiful beyond belief.

There's quite an ethnic feel to the collection of goods they sell. The home ware ranges from gorgeously made things to hang in a room ( i don't think they serve any purpose other than to add some spice to the decor and liven up a room) as well as their window decorations and partitions are quite reasonably priced. The other things like the incredible eastern jewellery is a little more pricey. They really do have an amazing and well organised and displayed treasure trove of the modern and antique. If you're in the area I highly recommend taking a closer look.
