Located inside the Lower Exchange Hall, Lunartique is a vibrant, independent boutique widely known as an "Aladdin's Cave" of eclectic treasures. Run by artisan maker Helen Christini since 2000, this colourful shop offers a sensory mix of home decor, handmade items, and bohemian apparel.
The store's atmosphere is cosy, distinct, and highly immersive, complete with a relaxed backroom shrine area where visitors are welcome to rest and leave notes in a long-running guest book. Reviewers frequently describe it as a beautiful, welcoming hidden gem filled with items you won't find on a typical high street. Key Features:
Bespoke Bridal Wear: Owner Helen Christini specializes in creating highly detailed, custom-made wedding tiaras and delicate circlets tailored to individual requests.
Handcrafted Jewellery: The shop features a glittering array of original jewellery, including intricate glass-blown spiders on delicate silver chains and crystal necklaces.
Global Home Textiles: The walls and floors are packed with patterned Indian textiles, mandalas, tapestries, woven rugs, and comfortable blankets.
Eclectic Homeware & Clothing: The curated inventory includes everything from stained glass window hangings and miniature chandeliers to funky, colourful clothes.
