Our Collections
Vintage
Def: ‘of age’
Vintage items are generally considered to be between 40-100 years old, not as old as Antiques.
Value is driven by demand which is in turn influenced by desirability – a combination of many factors, some purely subjective. These factors may include current popularity, decorating trends, beauty and design, the creator. We think if you love it you should have it! After all, we know everything old becomes ‘new’ again, and that trend will roll back around sooner than you think!
Antiques
Antiques are items at least 100 years old. Of course, some more fragile items are less likely to make it past 100 years than others, so rarity and (sometimes but not always) value change accordingly. Antiques work in any space, instantly adding a sense of permanence, depth and a beautiful focal point.
Country Style
Inject your home with warmth and style with the enduring simplicity of country style kitchen staples, handmade wooden furniture, hand tools, butter churns, milk urns, ceramic jars and pottery jugs, spools of twine, long lasting cane laundry baskets and trunks. Seek out unique rustic pieces crafted purposefully on the farm, with love for a family member, made to last from generation to generation, each owner adding layers of character in the patina left behind.
Coastal
Settle in with a relaxed cottage by the sea feeling, featuring glass floats, fishing nets, shells and coral, antique compasses, nautical bric-a-brac, anchors, mermaids, whitewash, driftwood, linen, jute and twine, raffia, vintage games and books – select accent pieces for a pleasing vignette, or layer them all to create a coastal retreat you’ll never want to leave.
Industrial
Reclaimed factory lighting, metal cabinets, chest of drawers and furniture, utilitarian design features all come together to create a stylish pared back Industrial aesthetic. Black steel frames, softly worn timber, beautifully practical and hard wearing pieces of beauty and style, vintage industrial style perfectly blends the strong and the warm for oodles of welcoming charm.
Art
We adore vintage botanical prints and flower pressings, antique watercolours, antique oil paintings, portraits, still life, vintage photographs and more.
Mid Century
The dominant furnishings of the mid-20th century post WWII—simple, functional furniture made from teak and curved designs reigned supreme, with simple but luxurious decorative items adding the flair. Designers and makers were incubating new ideas incorporating the mass production techniques invented during the first half of the 20th century with a more optimistic outlook for the future.
We love the teak furniture and decorative glassware of the era with it’s clean lines and understated elegance, quietly styling any mid-mod room space or used as a beautiful accent piece anywhere!
Kitchen & Tableware
Love to keep collecting but don’t have any more space? We love to swap out new for old in our dining ware – vintage silver serviette rings, linen tablecloths, vintage crystal glassware, serving ware, blue and white china (choose from Royal China Willow ware, Mikasa, Noritake, Wedgewood and friends) all fit right into your cupboards when their plain jane new counterparts have seen better days. But who are we kidding, these pieces are too beautiful to hide in the sideboard – keep them on display on open shelving and use them every day to add some vintage style, and mix and match odd sets for a delightful eclectic vibe at your next dinner party. Individual pieces make great gifts for that favourite hard-to-buy-for vintage loving friend too!
