5 Iconic Furniture & Decor Pieces for Your Home

What every well-styled home needs

When it comes to home décor and furniture pieces there are certain timeless items that instantly elevate a space and transcend trends and fads to bring a sense of elegance and style to your home.

If you’re considering investment pieces to treasure forever, these classics hold an everlasting appeal that elevates any space.

The Classic Leather Couch

A quality leather couch is always in style, and a Chesterfield-style button-back couch is a timeless classic that has been a sought-after piece for over 200 years. Whether upholstered in rich leather or plush velvet, this sumptuous textured sofa is an elegant addition to any home.

The Madison range of couches is based on the classic Chesterfield style, with rounded arms, turned wooden legs and a buttoned finish. It is available in velvet or linen-style fabric but the full grain leather option retains the timeless appeal of the original style.

If the Madison is too antique for your taste, try the Harvard range for a more contemporary take with sophisticated lines and sleek legs.

Our bestseller, The Huxley couch is a classic choice for those who prefer clean, minimalist lines.

Styling tip: Choose one key piece as the focal point for your lounge or living space. A 3-seater leather sofa can be styled with single velvet seaters to bring in a mix of textures, fabrics and styles.

The Statement Mirror

A beautiful mirror not only creates a sense of space by reflecting light but a stylish piece can greatly elevate the feel of the room it is placed in. Classic mirrors with burnished metal frames offer a timeless antique look with rich texture and warm gold tones.

The Georgia floor mirror is a classic style with a rich textured frame that brings a sense of luxury and style to the room.

Styling tip: An opulent framed mirror turns the piece from practical to a work of art. Consider a frame that elevates the room it hangs in like the striking Peruvian mirror or Sunburst mirror.

The Drinks Trolley

A stylish bar cart is a timeless piece that can be used in a variety of ways.

Other than the obvious and traditional function of an attractive and functional storage place for your drinks, you can also use a drinks trolley as a chic side table in a bedroom or as a storage solution in a bathroom while giving the space a stylish twist.

Style tip: A bar cart is also great as a side table for your sofa, as a nightstand or as a guest-room addition.

The Traditional-Style Carpet

Traditional woven patterned carpets from Morocco, Turkey and Iran bring a luxurious old-world charm to your home. Heirloom style carpets handed down through generations with faded tones and worn in spaces carry a rich history and bags of character.

To achieve a similar feel for your space, a new carpet inspired by antique pieces brings bags of style, texture and warmth to any room.
