Why buy antique or vintage!
Great question......
I think buying antique or vintage pieces for the home and garden, to me anyway, is because I prefer them to new pieces.
They are usually better made and in the case of furniture made from real wood as in oak, mahogany, walnut to name a few.
Antique and vintage furniture have already lasted the test of time and will go on lasting into the future unlike a lot of pieces made today. They also weather with time and the older they get the better they look from their worn look and patina to the wood and leather.
Also, it's a way of being good to the planet by not buying new we are reusing, repurposing and stopping items going into landfill.
I love buying gorgeous pieces for the website and our interiors barn and I'm so lucky that our customers feel the same way.
We only buy good quality pieces. These are pieces I would put into my own home and so I feel confident that I can sell them to my customers, and they will be thrilled with their purchase.
Vintage High back Three-Seater Chesterfield Sofa in Leather
Perfect for that vintage country look. The leather has just the correct amount of wear without it being tired.
Victorian Walnut Bookcase
This is the most gorgeous Victorian walnut bookcase that has not only been around for 150 years and still looks amazing but is so useful too. This item would look amazing in both the modern home and a country cottage.
So just buy what you like it's your home!
