Fresh finds: stools, linen, shelving and more

Thrifting offers an inspiring and affordable way to furnish a home with unique, one-of-a-kind pieces, extending beyond just clothes and trinkets to include furniture. Unlike antique stores, thrift stores provide a more budget-friendly option, though the selection can be varied. Knowing what items to seek out can lead to discovering true vintage gems. Experts recommend looking for specific types of furniture that offer both quality and character. Peacock chairs are highlighted as a classic vintage staple, known for their dramatic arched backs and bamboo detailing. Rattan furniture, including peacock chairs, has been popular for decades, making thrift stores an excellent source for unique styles. Amber Michelle, founder of The Magic Of Round Top and a vintage collector, emphasizes the appeal of 1970s peacock chairs and other artisan-crafted furniture made from high-quality woods, considering them potential heirloom pieces. She advocates for thrifting as a creative and environmentally conscious approach to home decorating, viewing it as 'heart and soul-based shopping.' Stools are another highly recommended thrift store find. These humble yet versatile pieces can fill empty spaces, provide extra seating, or serve as surface areas without overwhelming a room. Their variety in shapes and sizes makes them suitable for diverse interior design styles. Mike Fretto, CEO of Neighbor, points out that new stools are often overpriced, making thrift stores a cost-effective alternative for acquiring unique styles. Stools are also relatively easy to customize through staining or painting, and simple repairs to uneven legs are manageable. Vanities and desks are identified as classic pieces to hunt for. While specific items can be hard to find, an antique desk can add patina and character to a home office, or a vintage desk can function as a vanity in a bedroom. Jane Shapiro, founder of Mothership Thrift and Vintage, praises the superior quality of materials and design details found in vintage vanities and desks compared to modern furniture. She cites Art Deco vanities as examples, often featuring solid wood construction, thick glass mirrors, sturdy drawer pulls, and practical storage compartments. Maintaining and restoring old wood and metal furniture is made easy with readily available products, such as touch-up markers for scratches and discoloration. Bamboo furniture, a significant trend for 2025, is valued for its relaxed, bohemian aesthetic and durability. This style, popular from mid-century design to the present, is frequently found in thrift stores. Bamboo pieces can serve as ideal seating for front porches or comfortable living room chairs, offering a blend of casualness and tradition. Emma Carole Paradis, co-founder of Impeccable Nest, specifically seeks out bamboo armoires and corner étagères in dark woods, noting their ability to add warmth and elegance to an interior. Mid-century accent chairs are highly sought after due to their contemporary appeal, often retailing at high prices in dedicated vintage shops. Thrifting offers the best chance to acquire these pieces at a more accessible price. Hannah Oravec of Lawless Design studio suggests looking for Danish modern, French, Belgian farmhouse, and English cottage styles, which blend seamlessly to create a collected and eclectic feel. While high-end designers may be rare finds, she advises keeping an eye out for names like Fritz Hansen, Pierre Jeanneret, and Henning Kjaernulf, who created beautiful, timeless pieces. Finally, wooden dining tables are excellent thrift store purchases. Whether a long table for a traditional dining room or a small round one for a breakfast nook, thrift stores often have a range of donated furniture. Rachel Leonard Kennedy, who frequently thrifts furniture, emphasizes the longevity of real wood pieces compared to modern press-board alternatives. She shares personal successes, such as a mahogany dining table found for $25 in Germany and a dark walnut end table from the late 1800s for $80. She also recommends using Murphy Oil Soap for cleaning and maintaining wood furniture, which keeps it supple and imparts a pleasant scent. #ThriftStoreFinds #VintageFurniture #HomeDecor #InteriorDesign #PeacockChairs #Stools #VanitiesAndDesks #BambooFurniture #MidCenturyModern #WoodenDiningTables

The luxury brand The Row, founded by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, has discreetly launched a curated vintage furniture line. This collection, found under a new 'Galerie' sub-page on The Row's website, expands on the brand's earlier foray into homeware. In early April, The Row introduced its first homeware collection during Milan Design Week, which included handwoven cashmere blankets and quilted bedding sets, presented in an intimate and minimalist style. The newly released vintage furniture line reflects The Row's signature aesthetic, characterized by understated luxury and meticulous attention to detail. This design philosophy was notably evident in the interiors of their flagship store in Paris, where furniture played a crucial role in shaping the twins' vision. Examples from the Paris store include two 1940 wooden Traineau chairs by Victor Courtray and a 1955 black Georges Jouve coffee table, alongside custom-built seating that subtly references Californian design, such as a 1930 coffee table by Michel Dufet. The online curated selection features a range of significant 20th-century pieces from renowned designers. Highlights include a Charlotte Perriand Cansado Table from 1958, a pair of armchairs by Guillerme et Chambron from 1960, a round wood and metal side table by Louis Sognot dating back to 1930, and a foldable chair by Pierre Dariel from 1934. These selections underscore The Row's commitment to timeless design and high-quality craftsmanship, extending their brand identity beyond fashion into the realm of home furnishings. The quiet launch of this collection is consistent with The Row's typically private and understated approach to their business, opting for a subtle online release rather than a high-profile announcement. This method allows the pieces to speak for themselves and resonates with an audience that appreciates refined aesthetics and exclusive offerings. The integration of vintage furniture into their existing homeware offerings suggests a natural evolution for the brand, reinforcing its holistic vision for a well-curated lifestyle. #TheRow #VintageFurniture #LuxuryDesign #Homeware #InteriorDesign #CharlottePerriand #LouisSognot #GuillermeEtChambron

West Haddon Hall, a Los Angeles-based furniture company, is introducing its new Collection II, which focuses on creating future heirlooms through well-considered and thoughtfully designed furniture. Founder and interior designer Kate Driver emphasizes that good design ages better, underscoring the brand's commitment to longevity and timelessness. The collection, comprising seven distinct pieces, draws inspiration from classicism and organic forms, integrating centuries-old artisanal techniques such as straw marquetry and caning, alongside sensitive upholstery detailing. Key pieces include the Brooks armchair, featuring a geometric wooden frame with caning and a gently curved upholstered top rail, and the Mulberry armchair, as well as the Wyngate Marquetry cocktail table. The philosophy behind West Haddon Hall's new collection is rooted in creating pieces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and enduring. Driver believes that decorators, given their understanding of client needs and daily living, are uniquely positioned to design furniture that integrates seamlessly into homes and is cherished for generations. This approach contrasts with the trend of fast furniture, offering an edited and usable collection where functionality and the end-user's experience are paramount. Driver often references her own treasured family heirloom, an old Welsh dresser, as an inspiration for preserving the memory and value of old objects in new designs. To showcase Collection II, Kate Driver meticulously staged each piece within an architecturally significant 1921 home designed by Francis Pierpoint Davis. This backdrop, chosen for its historical significance and recent renovation that preserved original details, allowed the new furniture to be presented alongside vintage pieces and antiques. This contextualization highlights how West Haddon Hall's designs can integrate into diverse environments, illustrating the potential for new items like the Elliston daybed and Ivy side table (from Collection I, now available in a new Champagne color) to coexist harmoniously with cherished older items, fostering a personal and unique living space. True craftsmanship is a cornerstone of West Haddon Hall's collection. Driver actively seeks collaborations with artisans and craftspeople to ensure the revival and continuation of traditional techniques. She expresses a particular interest in marquetry and caning, emphasizing the importance of preserving these rare arts from fading into obscurity. The new floating credenza, for instance, prominently features natural caning and honeyed oak, showcasing the brand's dedication to these intricate skills. The company also offers customization options, allowing clients and trade professionals to specify different sizes or materials, thereby providing original, bespoke, and timeless quality furniture. #FurnitureDesign #HeirloomFurniture #InteriorDesign #ArtisanalCrafts #SustainableDesign #TimelessDesign #WestHaddonHall #KateDriver #LuxuryFurniture

This article provides comprehensive advice on how to successfully shop for secondhand furniture and home decor, drawing on the experiences of Wirecutter's home-decor writers, Joshua Lyon and Ivy Elrod. They were each given a budget of $1,500 to find a couch, a rug, and a lamp, and their methodologies are detailed as practical tips for consumers. The article outlines two primary strategies for secondhand shopping: a targeted approach with specific parameters, as adopted by Joshua, or a discovery-oriented approach, which Ivy favored. It emphasizes the importance of flexibility and adaptability in either strategy, cautioning against impulse buying while also encouraging openness to unexpected finds. The authors advise using online platforms like Facebook Marketplace as a starting point, highlighting its advantages over older platforms like Craigslist due to seller transparency. Key online searching techniques include using broad search terms, leveraging algorithms, and being patient during the extensive sifting process required to find valuable items. Further online strategies involve zooming in on listing photos to discern details about the seller's taste and potential hidden gems. The article also suggests utilizing platforms like Etsy for unique vintage finds and cross-checking prices on multiple sites (e.g., 1st Dibs, Chairish) to verify fair value and authenticity. Ivy’s experience finding a Ligne Roset “Mama” lamp at a significantly reduced price after cross-referencing its market value on other platforms serves as a prime example. The importance of quick and polite communication with sellers is also stressed, with Ivy sharing a structured approach to initial messages. For in-person shopping, the article notes the benefit of inspecting items for smells and structural integrity, especially for rugs. It encourages making shopping trips to vintage and antique stores, and using smartphones to cross-reference items and check sold prices on platforms like eBay to aid in bargaining. The element of surprise is also celebrated, with Joshua recounting his emotional connection to a chaise lounge discovered in a vintage store that reminded him of his grandmother's. Confirming the quality of an item is crucial, including checking for brand markings, odors, wobbliness, visible damage, hasty repairs, and functionality. Ivy’s method of checking couch springs and Joshua’s approach to understanding an item's provenance are discussed. The article concludes with advice on curating finds using photo mock-ups and the importance of factoring in transportation costs and effort. It also covers the process of cleaning and making minor repairs to secondhand items.
