Barcelona Vintage: El Raval to Gràcia — A Mediterranean Trail
Barcelona's vintage market has matured fast. Five years ago it was a handful of shops in El Raval. Now: dedicated kilo stores, designer archive boutiques in Gràcia, and a street market culture that rivals Berlin. The Catalan preference for natural materials — cotton, linen, wool, leather — means the secondhand quality here is unusually high.
