Our story

Gathered by hand, from old houses and small makers

We hunt estate sales, auctions and flea markets around Washington, DC for real antiques: brass that has been handled for a century, keys to forgotten doors, books with names inked inside the cover. We pair them with fairy and apothecary goods from independent makers, and with our own Atelier art.
