Cool Hunting

The Brooklyn Flea, Fort Greene's arts, crafts and antiques bazaar, has gone indoors and upscale during these winter months. Their new location in DUMBO is the ideal spot for the revamped market, which is set to be less flea and more quality antiques and collectibles, like Eames chairs, French '68 protest posters, old phonographs and iron clocks from Ansonia.
In addition to classic furniture and rare finds supplied by a rotating cast of vendors, the market will also include a Curated Corner. This area will feature goods chosen by various websites that have been invited by the Flea, including CH, Refinery29 and Daily Candy.
We'll be selling some of our favorite products the weekend of 7-8 March 2009, so mark your calendars now. A full list of what we will have to offer will be posted closer to the date, but naturally it will be full of choice items we love and appreciate most.
