Once upon a time two of the three friends that opened this vintage furniture shop worked in publicity and decided that it sucked a little too much. Gerard was from Mallorca and Antonio from Porto (but living in Berlin). They teamed up with friend Jorge from l’Hospitalet to sell the muebles all three had been collecting at home anyway, as well as to host small events, expos and the like. Their publi-skills came in handy and, a few months later, with an awesome idea and a kick-ass promo video, they had put their Dirty Harry pinball machine to good use, hosting a pinball campeonato the likes of which this city has never seen. And when they’re not doing that, they are selling beautifully restored (or just well maintained) vintage furniture, lamps and other bits and bobs they procure mostly from jolly old England. But beware, there are a few pieces they’ll refuse to sell you. They’ve fallen in love.
