I make no excuses for putting Portobello Road together with specialist dealers as a category, the two go together, most definitely hand in hand. Portobello road is located in the Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, Notting Hill Country, in the Heart of London. Every Saturday morning, Portobello Road comes alive into the busiest antique market in the World. Specialist dealers in every genre of antiques imaginable display their finest pieces & collectors from around the World flock to buy them. Yes, there are specialist corkscrew dealers & yes, if you're serious about obtaining good pieces for your collection then a trip to Portobello is a must. First, go & meet the corkscrew dealers that have spent years building contacts, knowledge & will have definitely have some corkscrews for you to buy. Then, explore the arcades, shops & outdoor pitches & enjoy the bustling atmosphere before rewarding yourself for your antique hunting efforts with a coffee or crepe. Rewarding your efforts is important. You are a hunter gatherer, corkscrews are your prey & being refreshed is a must!
Here are some places to visit & people to meet when you get to Portobello Road.
