Pool Bank Vintage Interiors is a furniture store just outside Otley. Housed in an old paper mill, it has three floors of vintage, retro and mid-century furniture, lighting and household objects. I've been meaning to call in for ages, and it is quite a treasure trove!
I've already got as much furniture as I need and wasn't really looking for anything in particular but there was some attractive stuff, including some very well-made vintage Ercol cabinets, chairs and tables and some amazing haberdashery shop display units.
It's the smaller items that I find most fascinating, like these old glass bottles and pharmacist jars.
If I was going to splurge on anything it would have been these nested G Plan coffee tables. I do have some nested tables that are glass with metal frames. They're not really the right style for my mid-century vibe but, on the plus side, glass tables don't dominate a small space, so I guess I'll stick with them for now.
Love the wood tables...sigh. No space either!
ReplyDeleteThere are some wonderful pieces in that shop.
ReplyDeleteI like mid-century style furniture etc. very much. It has such a familiar feel, as if I‘ve known it forever.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool find! I can completely see why a place like that would be a treasure trove, it looks like so much fun to just wander through and discover things. It’s so interesting how those little details, like the old glass bottles and pharmacy jars, can be so captivating.
ReplyDeleteI totally get what you mean about the nesting tables. The G Plan ones are beautiful, but it's true that glass tables can make a smaller room feel so much more open. It's always a challenge to find that perfect balance of style and practicality.
