I always have loved vintage fashion jewellery, I have been collecting them for quite a long time already and I have gathered some great pieces. There are two places that I regularly visit when looking for some new ones.
One is in portobello market, near Notting hill gate station, the owner is a lady of a certain age, She has been selling all these vintage jewellery and building her reputation for 30 years. Even David Beckham went there a few times and made some purchases. The window in these pictures are from this shop.
The other place is in Old Spitalfields market, close to Liverpool street station. There is a lady called Katherine, who has been dealing with fashion jewellery for 25 years, her business has gone global as she finds and sells her pieces worldwide. She excels when it comes to Chanel, she got so many incredible pieces. Sometimes she won't sell you one piece she particularly loves until she hasn't worn it enough. She gave me good tips, like how to send vintage Chanel pieces to the official boutique and get them repaired. They make them look like new.
