Car Boot Sale Haul & Chat, Vintage Sourcing UK

Welcome to Our Week in Vintage — our weekly Wednesday chat about sourcing, selling and living with vintage and antique things. This week we visit Marks Tey, our favourite car boot sale in Essex, and sit down to show you our favourite vintage, antique and handmade finds. We each picked five pieces to share: a vintage brass lion door knocker, hand-carved wooden butter paddles, an atomic-era "banana boat" from the 1950s, a hand-painted ceramic decoy duck, handmade terracotta studio pottery bowls, retro cameras and more. 🛒 Shop our finds: www.fireandwolfinteriors.com ✉️ Join our newsletter for 15% off for life: www.fireandwolfinteriors.com/founding-member-sign-up-15 Subscribe and join us every Thursday for honest sourcing advice, selling stories, and how to buy vintage and antiques with confidence.
