I have a weakness for antiques that are just a little bit strange.
These vintage black candlesticks with their delicate Art Deco Erte figures are exactly the kind of thing I can never leave behind. Moody, elegant, slightly mysterious, and somehow even better as a mismatched height pair.

An exercise in simplicity.
Light, shadow, and a single sculptural form. This oversized centerpiece catches its surroundings as beautifully as the objects it holds. Style it up, toss your keys in it, or use it as a chic fruit bowl, the options are endless and it makes a statement all on its own.
Chalkware is delicate and porous and so I almost passed on these due to the grime and being difficult to clean without use of water. Then I remembered an old cleaning tip shared by my mom. A simple white polymer eraser.
With a light touch, it lifted the marks without damaging the finish.
It’s always worth testing in an inconspicuous area first, since every vintage piece is different, but this pair cleaned up beautifully.
Sometimes restoration isn’t about making something look new, it’s about letting it look like itself again.
These vintage chalkware busts are now available. Link in bio.

The Honourable Mrs. Graham
A quiet study in elegance. This portrait is after Thomas Gainsborough’s celebrated painting of Mary Cathcart (1757–1792), daughter of the 9th Lord Cathcart and wife of Thomas Graham of Balgowan. Admired for her beauty, grace, and intelligence, Mrs. Graham became one of Gainsborough’s most beloved muses, and his portrait of her remains one of the defining images of 18th-century British portraiture.
More than two centuries later, her gaze still has a way of stopping you in your tracks. Available now✨

Some pieces don’t need flowers to make a statement.
Intricate grapevine details, timeworn patina, and sculptural handles make this vintage brass centerpiece just as striking empty as it is filled. A piece that has quietly outlived trends, and is ready for its next home. Available now.

Before it held a reflection, it helped shape a hat.
This early to mid 20th century wooden hatter’s fl**ge was once used to form the brim of a gentleman’s felt hat. Its original size, brim width and pattern markings remain, along with the divots, scratches and honest wear left by years in the workshop.
Thoughtfully repurposed as a one of a kind mirror, its history preserved rather than erased. Available now. Link in bio. 🤎
