Finding the Right Decorative-objects for You

Every time you move into a house or an apartment — or endeavor to refresh the home you’ve lived in for years — life for that space begins anew. The right home accent, be it the simple placement of a decorative bowl on a shelf or a ceramic vase for fresh flowers, can transform an area from drab to spectacular. But with so many materials and items to choose from, it’s easy to get lost in the process. The key to styling with antique and vintage decorative objects is to work toward making a happy home that best reflects your personal style. 

Ceramics are a versatile addition to any home. If you’ve amassed an assortment of functional pottery over the years, think of your mugs and salad bowls as decorative objects, ideal for displaying in a glass cabinet. Vintage ceramic serveware can pop along white open shelving in your dining area, while large stoneware pitchers paired with woven baskets or quilts in an open cupboard can introduce a rustic farmhouse-style element to your den.

Translucent decorative boxes or bowls made of an acrylic plastic called Lucite — a game changer in furniture that’s easy to clean and lasts long — are modern accents that are neutral enough to dress up a coffee table or desktop without cluttering it. If you’re showcasing pieces from the past, a vintage jewelry box for displaying your treasures can spark conversation: Where is the jewelry box from? Is there a story behind it?

Abstract sculptures or an antique vessel for your home library can draw attention to your book collection and add narrative charm to the most appropriate of corners. There’s more than one way to style your bookcases, and decorative objects add a provocative dynamic. “I love magnifying glasses,” says Alex Assouline, global vice president of luxury publisher Assouline, of adding one’s cherished objects to a home library. “They are both useful and decorative. Objects really elevate libraries and can also make them more personal.”

To help with personalizing your space and truly making it your own, find an extraordinary collection of decorative objects on 1stDibs.

Questions About Antique Tunbridge Ware
  • 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 10, 2025
    Tunbridge Wells is famous for several things, including being home to a luxury spa and numerous historic estates. In addition, the British town is the birthplace of Tunbridge ware, a type of decorative inlaid woodworking. Tunbridge ware was most popular during the 18th and 19th centuries, when artisans working in the town produced boxes, board games, musical instruments and other functional art. Find a collection of Tunbridge ware on 1stDibs.

    To identify Tunbridge ware, first examine photographs shared on trusted online resources so you can become familiar with what these decorative furnishings and housewares look like. While there have been many styles, Tunbridge ware usually shows off decorative mosaics created by gluing together pieces of wood in thin layers. The result is very distinct, so you may be able to recognize it based on sight alone.

    You can also search your piece for a maker's mark or label and then research the artisan or company that produced it to see if it is known for Tunbridge ware. One very well-known maker was Thomas Barton, who typically added a “T. Barton” label to his works. To get an expert opinion on your piece, have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer inspect it.
