Set on one of Melbourne’s most iconic strips, Smith Street, Vintage Stash is a great reflection of life in Collingwood past and present – eclectic and artistic with both products that are old and new, not to mention sourced from all over the world.
Owner Maryanne travels to trade shows in Paris and London to find artisans the world over, and brings back their products to sit beside carefully sourced vintage furniture and home wears. Blankets from Finland, posters from London and scarves from Paris are peppered with a heavy dose of Australian designers and brands like Samantha Robinson ceramics, with the shop particularly focused on ‘wall art.’
Wall-art however can mean just about anything, from prints and posters to ornaments like arrows and crucifix, painted tiles, beads and fabric bunting.
You’ll need some time if you’re serious about exploring the shop, but it’s absolutely worth a look and I’d defy anyone to leave empty handed! I’m definitely heading back when I’m ready to decorate the baby’s nursery, it’s a treasure trove of gorgeousness.
