L'Arca de L'Àvia
L'Arca de L'Àvia Review
As the name of the place ("grandmother's trunk") suggests, this is a miscellaneous potpourri of ancient goods of all kinds, especially period clothing from shoes to gloves to hats and hairpins. Despite the found-object attitude and sense of the place, they're not giving away these vintage baubles, so don't be surprised at the costumes' cost.
