Learn your body parts with our original 1940s series of old doctors charts just in and a very rare find. These wall charts are so one off and once gone thats all folks !! Are eight in a series.

In a flapper

I am so crazy about the 1930s to the 1940s and found these shoes out in the country whilst on my hols. They are so immacuate and a good size with lovely vintage details. I just see the person with a cute bob and a strong sense of style that buys them.
A rare vintage treasure so see if you are the Cinderella that fits them.

The Chairman of the Board


Hurry in and be quick as we have just found sets of chairs and they are doozies.
Sebels are in today straight from the country in a set of six and in dark green industrial metal but we have some fantastic red metal chairs from an old Donut Factory plus some sage green vinyl and metal stackables.
The in look from UK Stlye is now to mix up chairs and not have a series so as they are sold individually why not try it and create a new look in your home or garden.
"Nook Vintage" are excited to have them but chairs are our best seller and are not in store for long.

Call me !


We love phones and have a quirky collection happening in store right now.
The black dial up telephone works a treat and has a lovely buzz but for the funniest gift of all you must check out the "Brick" or one of the early mobile phones we have !! I am not quite sure where you stored in when not in use but it really is mind blowing that we had a use for them in the first place.

Nest with our homewares range


After Christmas many of us nest and like to work on the home which is our haven of solitude. At "Nook Vintage" we have everything you need for the home (sorry if I sound like an ad for Bunnings right about now ! )
From cushions to flags we have lots of original pieces perfect to make your place stand out from the crowds.
I am crazy about flags right now .....no correct me,obsessed and I am constantly sourcing them as they are the big thing in interiors and look incredible either as a wall feature or draped over a battered chesterfield.
Alongside of the soft furnishing we have lots of great bigger pieces too that marry well together so pop in and let us mix and match and hopefully inspire you to nest this year.

Hoorah for Layby !!

Finally we at Nook Vintage have decided to bring back the layby which is great news right after Christmas !!
Our layby is for anything in store except when we are on sale and involves a twenty per cent deposit and a four week time frame.
Bigger pieces can be stored safely in this period out of the store as we have limited floor space.
Conditions apply but this is one great bit of news that will please many of our regulars and give you more excuses to come and see us !
