Joburg customers will be delighted to know that we have a new agent in Johannesburg, Motmot at the Greenhouse, in Parkhurst. Motmot is a distinctive home and gift shop known for its vibrant, whimsical décor and unique pieces. The store offers vintage treasures, imaginative objets d’art, playful décor, chandeliers, quirky homeware, colourful design objects and of course hope garden furniture
Owner George opened this creative retail space in 2012. The name “Motmot” is derived from a colourful Family of birds, reflecting the shop’s eclectic and lively personality.
What you can find at Motmot:
Most of what you’ll find here are quirky and memorable objects you’re unlikely to see elsewhere. Including:
- Whimsical and vintage-inspired décor
- Bird-themed art and ceramics
- Unusual garden sculptures
- Unique lighting and seating
- Unexpected gifts and collector pieces
And of course hope..
The addition of hope garden furniture means that Johannesburg customers can buy directly from Motmot’s stock rather than having to wait up to 4 weeks. The price is also comparable with the Cape Town price and as George is placing bulk orders, the delivery price per unit lower will be lower.
Why visit?
Motmot offers a laid-back, joy-filled browsing experience for those looking for something out of the ordinary. Whether you’re shopping for a special gift or simply want to be inspired by imaginative interiors, it’s well worth the visit. Of course there is always the added benefit of being able to see the quality of our furniture in real life and to sit on the chairs before purchasing. Smaller items like our Bathmats are also in stock.
