Circus Vintage & Curios

Victorian bassinets, gothic lamps and antique Afghan rugs await inside Circus Vintage & Curios, a little two-room antique shop packed with conversation pieces from around the world. You can get an old typewriter for your desk, or perhaps some bronze scales. It’s only open on Saturdays though, so plan your visit carefully. 

Circus Vintage & Curios, 52 Dean Street, Edinburgh. 

Basus

Located in Glasgow’s Southside, Basus sources affordable wooden furniture that can fit easily into any home. Their pieces borrow from mid-century modern and Scandinavian styles with sleek but simple designs. If you’re looking for modern furniture but want something more unique and higher quality than Ikea, Basus is the place to go. 

Basus, 162 Fenwick Road, Glasgow.
