Daniëlle Heikens
What I enjoy even more than collecting vintage furniture and home accessories is the hunt for beautiful old treasures. I search online daily and travel around the country every week to expand our collection. Hunting for items from decades past—especially from the 1960s and 70s—is addictive, and every find is a joy. These discoveries also shape my ideas on styling and interior design. I believe a modern interior is the perfect backdrop for vintage pieces. I’m not talking about hanging fishing nets with corks from the ceiling or decorating the walls with loud purple, orange, and brown patterns. Just one vintage chair, lamp, vase, or a few small décor items can already transform a room and elevate its atmosphere. The result is an original and timeless interior that’s truly one of a kind. Not a cookie-cutter design, but your own unique habitat.
Harold Heikens
As an artist, I have a strong appreciation for various design styles and movements from the past century—Art Deco, Bauhaus, and Pop Art, to name a few. It was common for artists of that time to design products for companies as a way to earn money, which led to the creation of beautiful, timeless objects.
Like Daniëlle, I’m passionate about stylish vintage items from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. Sometimes she has to curb my enthusiasm and stop me from going overboard—otherwise I’d bring home too many curiosities and quirky finds. When that happens and we run out of space, you’ll find these unique items available in our webshops.
