3 Red Bikes
Rocklea
3 RED BIKES HAS PERMANENTLY CLOSED.
3 Red Bikes is a treasure trove of vintage and retro finds – from fashion to furniture – found on the corner of Balham and Granard Rds in Rocklea.
Inside this cottage on the corner, it’s crammed with age-old, endearing items including ceramic knick knacks and homewares such as silverware, glassware, china tea cups, kitchen canisters and novelty salt and pepper shakers.
There’s recycled furniture, lamps, mirrors, retro posters, prints and paintings; while one room in the house is devoted to fashion from floor to ceiling: clothing, hats, hand bags, gloves, belts, boots and shoes.
Outside, you’ll find inspiration for your garden with the likes of terracotta pots, rattan plant stands, bird cages and old petrol cans. Toys like vintage tricycles and scooters spill out onto the driveway, while a backyard shed is overflowing with furniture and much more.
