Shop Visit: Old Faithful's Second Outpost in Vancouver

Vancouver’s Old Faithful Shop is named for its reliably well-made household goods and old-fashioned attentive service. The original outpost is in Vancouver’s historic Gastown district, and the OFS team spent the last four months “stripping down and building back up” a second space in Vancouver’s Kitsilano neighborhood. Take a look.
““The area has a relaxed pace: you feel like you’re on vacation here,” says owner Walter Manning. Shown are Ferm Living pillows, fringed blankets, and a sculptural floor lamp in autumnal tones.
“We designed the space and fabricated the fixtures ourselves using a soft palette,” says Walter.
The shop sells everything from Copper Dish Cloths and Ostrich Feather Dusters to Verner Panton’s classic Flowerpot VP3 Table Lamps.
An inventive flower arrangement for the shop opening.
Among the kitchen offerings: the Kinto 4 Cup Brewer Stand Set, Kaico Coffee Pot, and Kakomi Donabes.
