Last week the Telegraph came to visit Alfies to find out why antiques and vintage make the perfect gifts. With vintage luggage, silk dressing gowns, danish table lamps and silver napkin rings they found a wonderful array of items to suit all tastes and budgets.
Here is our very own Christmas wish list from Alfies:
 |
| 1. Sparking gold and seed pearl jewellery. From Pari's Jewellery. |
