A Curation of Vintage Furniture, Homewares + Sourcing Keywords
It’s no secret - I love vintage and shop pre-loved whenever I can for my closet and home.
Admittedly, I don’t have the budget for much new (old) furniture at the moment, due to saving for bigger renovation projects at my fixer in the Catskill Mountains.
So — I’ve turned to getting my dopamine rush by shopping for you :)
Etsy is often forgotten for vintage home sourcing, but it’s one of my favorites. I’ve found plenty of gems on the platform, whether through buying directly, or discovering a new piece to source elsewhere due to location restrictions.
Good search words and a trained algorithm are key. There’s certainly a lot of custom, mass-produced crap to sort through on Etsy, too, so I hope some of these links help!
My favorite keywords for online search: MCM, danish, mid century modern, chrome, bauhaus, space age, teak, steel, burl, german, belgian, norwegian, brutalist, italian, art deco, 60s, 70s, 90s, jack cartwright, lane, herman miller, knoll, brazilian, colombo, mooi, laurel, metal, eames, le corbusier, MR, modular, de sede, post modern, japanese, rice paper, cassina, tobia scarpa, lebber
