Why Vintage ?

* Unique or almost unique - some items were custom made, and others were manufactured in small quantities.
* Good quality - they were designed to be used for years, well made
* Fine materials - many of the unusual older items are no longer manufactured, or are now prohibitively expensive
* Value for money - generally sell for a cost far below similar new product
* History - an appreciation of the past, the roles of previous generations and the skills of respected artisans
* Detailing: hand finishing, unusual, handmade.
* Style: vintage has traditionally been the favourite of creative personalities because it offers an enormously wide range of imaginative styles.
* Investment: some people buy to collect and increasingly, good quality vintage items especially items by well-known designers are sought after by collectors.

What is a Bazaar ?

A bazaar is a merchandising area or marketplace of shops where goods and services are exchanged or sold. The word derives from the Persian word bāzār, the etymology of which goes back to the Middle Persian word baha-char (بهاچار), meaning "the place of prices".Although the current meaning of the word is believed to have originated in Persia, its use has spread and now has been accepted into the vernacular in countries around the world. In North America, the term can be used as a synonym for a "rummage sale", to describe charity fund raising events held by churches and other community organizations, in which donated, used goods, such as books, clothes, and household items are sold for low prices, or else the goods may be new, handcrafted or home-baked, as at a church's Christmas bazaar.
