Junk Deluxe are a double act, Benjamin, who has a particular penchant for anything industrial, metal, and modernist, and Hayley, who has an eye for off the wall, quirky items, that your Gran definitely never owned. Based in Margate, Kent, Junk Deluxe focuses on affordable modern design. Specialising in furniture and lighting, they stock items from the modernist 1930's, right up to the exuberant, quality conscious 1980s, and anywhere excellent in between.Junk Deluxe is deeply hidden within another shop, on a residential street, so it's best to come prepared with a map. Upon finding the shop, customers are usually surprised to discover a shop not filled with the usual mid century design cliches, but an array of unique and novel items that they have probably never seen before, and are unlikely to see again.

Peony Vintage is an amazing vintage shop in the heart of Margate. Its decor is stunning and you feel like you're stepping into a really special place when you walk through its doors. Georgie (the owner) has a real eye for style and fashion, and all her pieces encompass some elements of current fashion trends. She designs and creates her own accessories too which really bring a modern twist on to some of the older, vintage pieces. I have also often ordered from Peony via their website and directly through Georgie's Instagram and she has always gone above and beyond to accommodate me and my order. Can't rate highly enough :)
