Woven Stories & Timeless Charm
Even in modern spaces, a vintage piece can be the very element that softens sleek edges and brings a human touch to the room.
Your Walls Tell A Story
When it comes to creating a home that feels layered, soulful, and lived-in—in the best possible way—nothing works quite like vintage art or a well-placed tapestry.
These pieces don’t just fill empty walls; they bring with them a sense of history, texture, and personality that instantly warms up any space.
Tapestries: Hung above a grand fireplace, a plush reading nook, or a stately bed, a tapestry transforms a simple wall into a textural masterpiece. Whether it’s a European hunting scene, a block-printed Indian textile, or a handmade weaving from a local maker, tapestries lend a collected, curated feel.
Tapestries are having a quiet comeback, and it’s easy to see why. They're particularly great for renters or anyone who wants to switch things up seasonally—easy to hang, move, and repurpose.
Vintage Art: Vintage art pieces, whether oil paintings from flea markets or sepia-toned landscapes, carry an unmistakable depth. They tell stories. Maybe it’s the soft fading of a color palette or the imperfect brushstrokes, but vintage art adds something new decor just can’t replicate: a lived-in feeling.
Where to Look: Don’t be afraid to dig. The best vintage finds often hide in unexpected places.

Don’t rush the process—collect slowly, and let your walls tell your story.
