In the middle of Notting Hill, this famous street is more than just an appealing backdrop for Hugh Grant movies -- it's a haven for those obsessed with antique treasures and gifts that refuse to be normal.
Saturdays are when the roads come alive. The market is an adventure in search of treasure. The air is suffused with chatter and the smell of freshly baked sweets from the bakeries. I always start in the antique section, where rows of stalls glitter with silverware, old clocks, and vintage jewellery. These aren't just things that you can buy, they're pieces of history that you can hold in your hands.
Retro stalls are a treasure trove of people who love quirky gifts. You could find an Art Deco tea set next to a stack of vinyl records from the 1970s, or a leather suitcase that has been battered waiting for its next adventure. I've found vintage typewriters that are still working perfectly, and a the tin toy that makes any eyes sparkle.
Portobello Road has a lot of personality in each piece. The sellers are usually collectors themselves willing to tell you the story behind each piece -- whether it came from an Georgian townhouse or a flea market in Paris. This kind of information makes a gift seem so much more personal.
And it's not just antiques. Scattered among the stalls are independent shops that sell reimagined vintage fabric, old prints turned into cushions, unusual present ideas for men reclaimed timber turned into jewellery boxes, vintage prints remastered for modern walls. It's where creativity and nostalgia meet and you'll find an unusual gift.
Be patient if you're going to Portobello to shop at Retro Gifts - related internet page - for gifts. Take your time, stop for coffee in one of the tiny cafes, and keep your eyes open. The best finds usually appear when you're not trying to hurry. You'll be left with something you won't find in a department store -- something with soul, a tale, and an element of London magic.
