Eclat Bazaar and Interiors

Like quite a few shops on The Parade, this store sells unique homeware décor and little trinkets that you can put on display to make your home that little bit prettier.
It is heavily French influenced — pronounced ek-​la, Éclat means «the brilliance of the sun», «the radiance of a smile», «the sparkle of diamonds». The building is reminiscent of Parisian architecture, and the things they sell are so impeccably stylish you would have no trouble believing they were French.
Inside, you will find a range of eclectic furniture, gifts, cushions, throws, crockery, tableware, rugs, mirrors, lighting, and a range of interesting wall art.
It’s a really cute place, even if you’re not into that sort of stuff, you might find it handy when it comes to buying gifts!

I love this place. At first sight it might look overly cute and girly. And well, I guess it kind of is too. The thing is that I wouldn’t decorate my whole home with their stuff but a piece here, something else there.
They have truly amazing pieces of furniture (especially chests of drawers) and lovely decorations such as clocks and welcome signs. Great shop if you’re after gift ideas too.
It’s not exactly cheap, not at all to be precise, but their stuff is very unique and pretty. Worth a browse!

Éclat Bazaar and Interiors is one of those adorable little stores which sells all those antique looking household items like bird cages and welcome signs. I simply adore these types of stores and therefore Éclat is no exception. For a reasonable price they have some gorgeous items which could be placed around the home or given to someone as a lovely gift. There are plenty of different types of things to choose from, some which will look great in the kids bedroom or some which will look great in the garden. There are some lovely candles which make the store smell divine, which is always an important factor to me when it comes to these stores.
This store is on two different «levels» (in other words there are a couple steps in the middle of the store to get to the counter), so be careful of your step. It’s easy to get distracted by all the items for sale and to miss your step!
Even though I was in Éclat for a little while browsing, the lady at the counter never asked me if I was looking for anything in particular. This necessarily is not a bad thing in my mind because I like browsing to myself and if I need help, I’ll ask for it. Though there may be some who think this irritating and rude. I didn’t get that vibe.
