A Touch Of Nostalgia In The Modern Era
Speed Philippines|May 2018

Most people would probably judge an item’s value based on how shiny or expensive it is, or whether it is made by a well-known brand name—brand new condition or not. Some might even go as far as considering something old as worthless.

A Touch Of Nostalgia In The Modern Era

But vintage items? They never get old. In fact, they only get more valuable as they age. “Old is gold,” as one saying goes.

If you have a penchant for items from the yesteryears, this unassuming shop in Marikina is definitely a must-visit.

Bzkleta x Handpicked Vintage Collection is a private showroom of collections by partners Lee Pua III and Rea Marie Ruff. And it’s nothing short of incredible—and nostalgic. Situated in a residential area that’s just a stone’s throw away from a bustling public market, the showroom would be easy to miss at first—as did this writer—since it is set up inside a private residence.

The showroom is actually an extension of the owners’ humble abode, which makes the spot quite homey. It began as a small showroom inside their house in January 2017 until it grew and had to be moved to its current spot within the compound in November of the same year. For curious souls, the store’s name gives a hint on what to expect.
