Antimonide - fashion spot -

Cult London Ukelele and Banjo shop the Duke Of Uke just launched its website. Based on Hanbury street, right in beetween Spitalfields and Brick Lane, the Duke of Uke shop is the only place of its kind, in this neighborhood as well as in the UK…

With its strong aesthetics and discerning selection, this shop is worth a visit whether you play the ukelele or not. By the way if you were to get started with the ukelele, you can get the multicoloured Mahalo ukeleles from there for about £20 and in almost any colours under the sun. We hear that’s were the British Vogue team sourced the ukelele used in “Tales of the Unexpected”, Tim Walker‘s story and homage to Roald Dahl in the current Christmas issue. Yes, that yellow ukelele that Gareth Pugh serenades Karen Elson with!
