Standing Mirror
You may have heard the old adage that mirrors make a room look bigger, but it's actually true. Mirrors are a great way to create the illusion of space, especially when you're short on square footage. If you've got a small living room or bedroom, try adding one as an accent piece--it can help make your space seem larger than it is!
Standing mirrors are also easy to move around if you decide to change up where they're placed in your home. And because they come in so many shapes and sizes (square or rectangular), standing mirrors work well with any décor style--you'll find one that fits seamlessly into any room design scheme!
Story Time
12 years ago when Jo and Rob first started looking for treasures for Singapore Trading Post they ventured to India and found a family business in Jodhpur who make these gorgeous mirrors.
Table Lamps
If you're looking for a way to add a touch of elegance to your home, look no further than the humble table lamp. These beautiful pieces can do so much more than just provide light; they also make a room feel more cozy and inviting.
You can use them as a nightlight, or as an accent piece that adds interest wherever it's placed--the possibilities are endless.
Need something with a little more height then we do suggest you have a look at our range of floor lamps.
Vintage Side Table
A side table is an indispensable piece of furniture for your living room. They are the perfect place to set down drinks, snacks, and other items that you want close by during movie night.
If you're looking for something to add style and elegance to your space without breaking the bank, look no further than our range of classic side tables.
Console Table
Console tables are a must-have for anyone looking to add a touch of elegance to their home. These long and low pieces of furniture are often used as sideboards, but they can also be used as room dividers or even display cases. Console tables have many uses, but they're most commonly used to showcase collectibles like China sets or figurines.
The most important thing about choosing a console table is making sure it fits in with the rest of your decorating style! If you want something that's more traditional and classic looking then consider going with an antique white finish; however if you're trying for something more modern then look at darker colors such as black or espresso browns instead (or even metallic finishes).
One of our lovely mirrors hanging above the console is the perfect accompaniment.
Wooden Chair
A wooden chair is a great addition to any home. It can be used as a dining chair or as an accent piece in your living room, either way it will add some elegance and style to your space.
Here are a few of our best-loved choices:
Planters Chair
The first mention of the Planters Chair was around 1850 and was associated with the owners of the sugar and tea plantations. From its inception the teak and rattan chair had a deep seat and long sloping back made from woven rattan or cane to allow air flow.
What really marked it out were the armrests which are a two part construction which enabled you to extend the top arm to enable you to sling your legs over them and totally recline. We are delighted to have these beautiful reproductions to add to your haven of relaxation.
Two-Seater
“I love a two seater chair because of the flexibility. I always seem take over the space of a two seater - books, iPad and more (Rob).”
Great space for one and even better for that additional seating when friends and family visit.
Dining Room Chair
Classic oriental-inspired dining chairs are known for their intricate designs, elegant curves, and beautiful finishes. From the timeless beauty of a bamboo chair to the intricate details of a Ming-style chair, these chairs will add a touch of sophistication to any dining room.
Whether you're looking for a classic look or something more modern, there's a chair out there that will perfectly complement your dining room decor.
