Early twentieth century wooden workshop drawers with their original metal labels and ornate brass handles. The timber has a warm, worn surface with the marks you’d expect from years of use. The labels read “Four Fold” and “Two Hole”, likely referring to sizes or types of old workshop fittings.
Both drawers run smoothly for their age. A characterful piece with an industrial look and a hint of haberdashery style. Ideal for storing stationery, tools, or small items.

A framed collection of vintage butterfly and moth specimens, arranged with a more spaced, almost study-like feel. The mix of larger swallowtails and smaller species gives it a nice rhythm, with the handwritten labels adding to that old natural history look.
Softer and a bit more pared back than fuller displays, which makes it easy to place. It works well layered with other pieces or on its own for a quieter statement.
A really easy one to style, especially if you’re leaning into that slightly collected, curated feel.

A striking framed display of vintage butterfly specimens, carefully arranged to show off the variation in colour, pattern and size.
From soft neutrals to deep blacks and flashes of green and blue, it has a really balanced mix that makes it feel considered rather than crowded. The larger specimens anchor the piece, while the smaller ones add detail the more you look at it.
Mounted in a simple black frame that lets the butterflies do all the talking. This is the kind of piece that completely changes a wall on its own.

A beautifully detailed hand beaded needlepoint chair with a richly decorative floral design across both the backrest and seat. The craftsmanship in the upholstery gives it that layered, textured look that instantly adds depth to a space.
The carved wooden frame features elegant cabriole legs and twisted uprights, giving it a classic, slightly ornate silhouette that pairs really well with the softness of the textile.
This is one of those pieces that works just as well as a statement chair in a bedroom or corner, as it does styled more decoratively with a throw or layered into a collected interior. It leans slightly traditional, but that’s exactly what makes it interesting when mixed with more modern pieces.
