Where to buy affordable antiques and art<\/h2>\n

Tat London<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Charlie Porter started Tat four years ago as a side project to her job as an interiors stylist. She loves junk shops and car booting so, to indulge her passion, she decided to open an online shop selling what she describes as \u2018low brow\u2019 pieces. \u2018I never think I specialise in anything, I buy what I like,\u2019 she says. \u2018But it would seem I like a lot of 20th-century European art and any sort of sconce \u2013 it can range from 17th-century to the 1990s. As long as you can put a candle in it, I will buy it.\u2019<\/p>\n

Scroll through the squares of Instagram seller Elizabeth Kemp\u2019s account and you\u2019ll find all manner of antique and vintage decorative items, from fabrics to pictures and china. Pretty vintage tins feature heavily and so too do charming antique prints. After working for several years in the art world in London, Elizabeth moved to a cottage near Frome in Somerset with her husband and decided to set up a business from home. Her grandmother is an antiques dealer and her mother (Ros Byam Shaw) writes about interiors so antiques and decorating run deep. \u2018I am selling things found by my mother and my grandmother as well as by me.\u00a0The only criteria are that they are things I love and would want in my own home,\u2019 she says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tarn London<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Shop for still life paintings, chairs and other interesting bits and bobs via Tanya Zendra\u2019s well-balanced grid on her Instagram account. She left her role at a communications agency in Shoreditch this year so she could seek out and sell old pieces after running out of space in her own home. \u2018It\u2019s amazing what lockdown has done for people. It allowed me to focus on two life-long passions: making things pretty and treasure hunting,\u2019 she says. Expect many different styles, genres and combinations of furniture and decorative items on her feed \u2013 interspersed with inspiring images\nof beautiful interiors.<\/p>\n
