Corso De’ Fiori

Corso De’ Fiori embodies a combination of casual elegance and sophistication. «Founded in 1989 by Margot Acland, Corso de’ Fiori has been delighting cognoscenti with a meticulously curated collection of quality, design-​led treasures and homewares from around the globe».
Browsing through the covetable items at one of the cleverly styled Corso De’ Fiori stores is an experience in itself! They have some fabulous pieces of furniture that are best described as fashionable, fresh and unique. Shopping here can be a bit of an indulgence but well worth it, in my opinion. It’s the perfect place to pick up an unusual wee gift or a little exotic treasure or two for your home.
I’d love to get my hands on their latest sideboard and library unit but for now; I’m thrilled to have finally found a store in New Zealand that stocks Malle W Trousseau kitchen implements! I purchased the spice grinder and hand-​held mandolin from the Auckland store a few weeks ago.
Drop in at the Auckland store and don’t be shy to ask Tony and Erin for help, if you are after something in particular — they offer great, personalized customer service. Some of the items in the store are displayed at very close proximity and there isn’t really any room to maneuver a pushchair etc., so I wouldn’t take young children along.
If you have time to kill, stay and soak up the atmosphere at one of the wee cafes in the beautiful historic Jubilee building. It’s the perfect spot for a wee lunch-​time escape during the week!
I had no problems with parking as I was at the Center for a course but according to their website; there is ample onsite parking. I was too busy having fun to take pictures but I have uploaded some pics from their website so you can get a feel for the place!
