I've got a couple of days in London, and if you were to try and find 1930s style jewellery, where would you prefer to go?

I'm trying to find a deco style glass pendant to go with a wedding guest outfit. So.ething similar to the link here.

I'm not a jewellery expert but the last time I went to Portobello Rd I was pretty dismayed by what had become of it. I think the Portobello Green section might be your best bet.

I can't think of anywhere in either place that's good for vintage jewellery. Maybe Hatton Gardens? Or could you get the train down to Brighton? Loads of jewellery shops in the Laines.

Etsy/online might be your best bet anyway.

But in London you could try Camden Passage at the Angel.

Alfie's Antiques might be worth a visit. Somewhere near-ish Marylebone (sorry I'm not in London as you can probly tell). It's one of the few places I know where you can still find 1930s clothing and there are a number of jewellery stalls there although I don't know them as well.

Very little left at Camden Passage sadly

This place is amazing:

Another vote for Camden Passage. Covent Garden doesn't have a specific vintage jewellery place. Portobello is good for watches but gets absolutely rammed.

Thanks for your replies. That's a shame about Portabello Road.

Antique shop is probably a good shout, so I'll check that out.

Grays Antique Market in Marylebone had lots of great jewellery last time I was there but annoyingly they only now seem to be open Monday-Friday.
