We have vases, dishes & bowls that will all get you in a Spring frame-of-mind.

Lamp Love

In love with this new lamp that just arrived to the store today!

Wowzers!

Funny conversation with a customer of mine at ACQUIRE last night:

Customer: "I can't believe you are selling this!"
Me:"I know. They are amazing, right? You can buy them as a pair or as a single piece."
Customer: "Will you think I'm weird if I come to your store every day to visit them?"


Quite possibly the coolest vintage furniture pieces I've ever been able to acquire are now in the store.
You'll have to stop the store to have a look for yourself.

Swiss Army Blanket Chair

My favorite piece in the store might very well be this vintage swiss army blanket chair.
I LOVE the industrial feel of it mixed with the old army textile.

We found a mid-century Harter steel chair and reupholster the piece with the blanket's fun red stripe and patent seal.
How fun would this piece be as a desk chair?!

Chair retails for $315.

These beauties are all coming to the store next week.
The necklaces and bracelets are handmade using metallzed leather.
Definitely statement pieces.
