Few and Far opened in March 2008. Priscilla
describes it as a shop and that she is the
shopkeeper.
The philosophy behind the shop was to create a collection of personal items for sale found from the huge bank of artisanal makers and new found skills that Priscilla had amassed over a life time of being in the retail business.
Not aimed at a socio-economic group, it has a very eclectic point of view; 'more like the way people live in their own homes' says Priscilla.
A surprising mix of carefully made clothing collections from India - France - Morocco -

A surprising mix of carefully made clothing collections from India - France - Morocco -
Italy - the Faroe Islands - Mongolia and the
UK, sit happily with contemporary and
vintage furniture, toys, craft and tabletop,
jewellery and exhibitions.
The shop was created to inspire and stimulate customers - prices are very wide; one pound for a ring to £10,000 for a storage piece. It is also intended to be somewhere that is very comfortable to be - staff welcome you, offer tea or coffee, talk to you knowledgeably about the products and wrap everything carefully in handmade paper.
This is not a conventional shop - it's somewhere to enjoy and to find something that hopefully you will treasure for a very long time.
