Eclectic Curios from Penreath & Hall | Bloomsbury, London




Lambs Conduit Street is a particularly lovely part of London somewhere any devotee of Interiors could spend effortless hours. Penreath & Hall’s little shop, just off Lambs Conduit street is brimming with eclectic curios. Last week The Interiors Almanac called in to ask Ben & Bridie all about it…

How would you describe Penreath & Hall and what services do you offer? A small shop in Bloomsbury, and online shop, crammed with good things for your home. 



Do you have a design ethos? 
We think the famous William Morris quote says it all:
"Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful".

How do you select the pieces for the Rugby Street shop? We simply buy things that we both like and that we would want to own ourselves. We share a very similar design aesthetic.

Are you both collectors? Yes. Ben has recently been collecting Mochaware mugs.


What is your most treasured possession?  Bridie: I treasure my possessions equally, they all give me pleasure in their own particular way


Can you recommend a favourite Interiors haunt? The Townhouse on Fournier Street, Spitalfields 

What is your price range? From £1 - £2500. Something for everyone.







Psst… If you happen to be in the area, with the many Interiors shops and clothing emporiums on offer, it’s really worth stopping by The Persephone Book shop.
