There is something extra exciting about shopping for homeware at an independently run business. While the British capital's legendary department stores — Liberty London, Selfridges, Harrods, Heal's, you name it — might offer a more straightforward journey to uncovering your next décor standouts, the best furniture shops in London are those that, although harder to find, put the human, and inherently subjective, essence of interior design back into the game.
Luckily for you, the Big Smoke isn't only a sought-after destination for people interested in sojourning in one of the best London hotels — it also boasts a thriving, and growing, home furnishings subculture made of art, objects, and design enthusiasts willing to share the tricks of the trade — or, at least, their best finds.
