ANTIQUE FURNITURE & JAPANESE PAPER.

For people who like antique furniture, I found this great store called "Belle Epoque Antiques"

26 Stanmore Rd, Sydney ph: 9572 6672. They specilaise in restoring antique furniture,

 and sell really useful antiques. Next is a wonderful paper shop called Amazing Paper,

   184 Enmore rd, 9519 8237, Sydney, which I visit frequently. They do

   custom stationery and sell unusual papers made from banana leaf and silk.

It is situated in the PYD Building amoung another 12 great design showrooms for interiors. Whilst you are there go see Content and I was taken by Exhibit . They stock collectable glasswear from Italian company Salviati. GORGEOUS!!!! and there is lots more, plus if you are peckish and need lunch or a snack stop at the YUMMY! Patisse .It is on the ground floor.
