One of my favorite things about the holidays is surprising loved ones with that special something that seems made for them. So as the giving season draws ever closer, I've been keeping my eyes peeled for one-of-a-kind vintage finds that will thrill everyone on my list. I was recently introduced to Bergen House, a brilliantly curated Etsy shop full of midcentury decor. Boston-based proprietor Chelsea has a keen eye for color, material, and form. More than a few gift-worthy gems jumped out at me!
You'll spot a few large pieces (this beech wood spindle back chair has serious sex appeal, no?), but for the most part Chelsea merchandises her virtual shelves with vintage tablewares from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Browsing the selection is as educational as it is fun, as most pieces include information about their original designers. Whether you're shopping for the midcentury afficiando in your life—or just want to add personality to your own holiday table—Bergen House is a must-visit!
