The unique shop, situated in a quiet lane just off Rua 5 de Outubro by Café Rustica has just celebrated its first six months of trading.
The antique, vintage and reproduction furniture ranges from small curiosity pieces to larger items; butchers blocks, dressers, armchairs and sofa beds. There is also a lighting range featuring bespoke pieces, retro shades, fittings and Edison lamps.
Added to this is a collection of striking yet affordable original art which sees vintage and reproduction metal wall plates, artisan ceramics as well as traditional oil, ink and watercolours.
The shop also offers an impressive library of English books and there is an exchange scheme for regular readers.
Owner Paul Lawson conceived the idea of an antique and vintage store after struggling to find suitable furnishings for his period home in the Algarve. Many of the items have been imported from the UK so the product mix is truly unique to the area.
Acorn also offers a design service and can source furniture to clients’ specific requirements.
