Treasures of Mumbai
Bombay has been on trade routes since ancient times and there's no knowing what you will come across when you visit its antique shops! I've come across jade daggers from Mughal times to ship's parts from the 19th century to matchbooks and Bollywood posters from the 40s! If you're a collector, chances are that there will be a collection of the things you collect that we can find somewhere in this city of teeming millions!
Chor Bazaar (Market) is a popular market for shopping antiques in Mumbai where antique and vintage stores congregate. It is one of the most famous spots to find some Indian treasures for many people. If you become an expat in Mumbai, you often get asked if you have visited Chor Bazaar yet, a market for antique shopping.
“Mumbai’s Chor Bazaar, which literally means “thieves market”, has a fascinating history that spans more than 150 years. Apparently, it was originally called Shor Bazaar, meaning “noisy market”, but “shor” became “chor” because of how the British mispronounced the word. Eventually stolen goods started finding their way into the market, resulting in it living up to its new name! These days it’s famous for antique and vintage items.”
