Perry’s

Not an artist myself, but was amazed by the selection available here. I visited to get art supplies for my children and found some good options for under 5’s as well. Also have a great range of office supplies and stationary.

An excellent local shop with an amazing range of stock of stationery items and arts supplies. Whatever they don’t have, they seem to get the next day upon request.

If you need a stationary in Fulham, Perry is the place to go. It is a place where you can look for hours for new ideas and discover different ways of binding, painting techniques, paper quality. I sometimes have a hard time what I actually need and not need.
Always ask for student discount. I would not buy their expensive ink cartridges. However, there unique selling point is that you can send a fax! Who would have thought I would use fax in our generation of technology — but that time it was urgent and the only solution. You are also able to do photocopies: both — black & white and colour prints. The owner is very kind — if you need something specific, you could ask him to order it for you, it might take a couple of days but is less hassle.
They are specialised in sketchbooks and lots of sketching paper — the worst thing, which can happen to a student running out of paper at the weekends. Note: Perry’s is open on Saturdays only!

I don’t really come into places like these very often nowadays. I am not a child, an artist or Banksy. Actually, scratch that last bit, what do you know, I might be.
Either way, I just don’t really use stationers much now. That being said, I still love their specialism and their smell. This one is a pretty good example of the breed, lots of stock, pretty decent collection of art and graphics materials plus they also sell a bit of office furniture (machines) and computer supplies. Comprehensive and reassuringly busy most of the time.
