Sourced from around Asia, authentic vintage pieces can add a pop of personality and heritage to your existing decor. For hand-crafted, impeccably restored antique furniture exclusively from Northern China, no one here does it better than Emperor’s Attic!

However, if you’d rather choose from the widest selection of authentic-yet-affordable furniture and antiquities from China, Tibet, Mongolia, Thailand, Myanmar, Indonesia and India, head to Woody Antique House’s sprawling showroom. There, you’ll find intricately handcrafted teak wood furniture, decorative ceramics and porcelain ware, traditional Chinese embroidery and much more. Or, peruse the eyecatching Indian vintage doors, window frames and other carvings at Artful House.

Scandinavian furniture is widely renowned for its craftsmanship and clean lines. Where can you find good sources in SG other than, you know, IKEA? Danish Design Co carries a wide range of authentic items handcrafted in Europe. Its products are both modern and timeless, and sustainably made, too.

You won’t be able to resist trying out the Fredericia Calmo Sofa (pictured, from $7,506) or the upholstered Beetle Lounge Chair, (from $2,538) at its sizable showroom.

Noden, on the other hand, is known for its vintage mid-century home goods sourced from around Western and Northern Europe. Think circa-1960s ceramic vases (from $139) or beautifully restored wooden furniture (prices upon request).
