L'Orangerie On Columbia Road

L'Orangerie resists definition, the objects are eclectic and the only common factor is that they have all been hand-picked by the owner. "On principal everything here is surplus to requirement. Anything that is eccentric, evocative of mood or place, stylish, well designed or simply because I like it, belong here. " L'Orangerie is not bound to the whims of the season - the visitor is as likely to find Panama hats and vintage style swimming caps in Winter as in Summer. This reflects the international clientele but more importantly the refusal to be dictated to by an increasingly dull retail world - where a sense of fun is all but gone.
