Marcia Montague's fairytale shop Inside Story is a treasure trove of wonderful antique furniture, lighting, linens and gifts.
Amongst the somewhat utilitarian shops in Mill Lane, West Hampstead, Inside Story is a little gem that glitters with a superb window display. An elegant victorian sofa upholstered in silk draped with a co-ordinated Regency throw is flanked by two lovely 18th-century chandeliers, the delicate glass drops twinkling at passers-by. Marcia and her daughter Rachel have flair, imagination and good taste and the welcoming exterior gently beckons both browsers and buyers to enter a world that is glamorous and eclectic. The Table is laid and the Bed is Made!Antique French and Dutch furniture, beautiful lights, elegant mirrors, water colour paintings, crisp white table linens, colourful vases and stylish jewellery are amongst the many delights that this lovely shop has to offer. Napkins circled with beaded holders, placed on a delicate tablecloth laid with silver cutlery make you feel you would like to stay for tea and then perhaps dinner as your eyes alight upon the French dresser displaying china plates and burgundy cut glass wine goblets. If you venture downstairs their is a pretty mahogany bed with a crisp white linen duvet which really makes you want to overstay your welcome! Regular Clients from All Over London and Even Visitors from AmericaMother and daughter are both excellent interior decorators and provide a reliable and personal service for clients wanting advice about home decor.
