Pelicans & Parrots opened it’s doors in the summer of August 2010. It has been described as the “first proper shop” in Dalston. It is a mixture of classic tailored and trend aware vintage fashion, furniture and interiors.
Contemporary furniture and objects sit alongside one off vintage pieces, many of which are inspired by a fascination with curiosities from the 17th century.
Most of the pieces sold defy categorization, such as a beautifully constructed Ostrich feather headdress from Trinadad, a Tribal monkey skull in a Victorian dome, to a pair of late 80′s electric blue high wasted ski pants.
Based in Dalston East London described by Italian vogue as the “coolest place in London”. Pelicans & Parrots couldn’t help but oblige by creating, ahem…the “coolest shop in London”.
As William Morris said “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful”.
