Sourcing Antiques & Vintage Furniture
Bespoke Sourcing of Antique & Vintage Furniture
Helping Clients Source Individual Antique & Vintage Pieces
At Campbell Vintage, we also offer a bespoke sourcing service for customers and trade clients looking for specific antique or vintage furniture and objects.
Whether you are searching for a single statement piece, something to complete a space, or an item with particular proportions, character, or history, we can help source pieces that are not readily available online or on the open market.
This service is ideal for those who value experience, discretion, and informed judgement over mass availability.
A Considered, Experience-Led Approach to Sourcing
Sourcing antique and vintage furniture requires more than simply finding something that fits a description. Age, condition, authenticity, scale, and presence all matter — as does an understanding of how a piece will sit within a space.
With over 30 years’ experience working with interiors, antiques, and vintage furniture, we take a measured approach, focusing on suitability rather than speed.
Every sourcing enquiry begins with a conversation, allowing us to understand:
-
The type of piece you are looking for
-
Intended setting or use
-
Size, material, and stylistic considerations
-
Budget expectations and flexibility
This ensures that what we source is appropriate, authentic, and well judged, rather than simply available.
For Private Clients & Trade
Our sourcing service is available to:
-
Private individuals furnishing a home
-
Interior designers and stylists
-
Commercial clients and hospitality projects
-
Creative and production-led environments
Whether the requirement is decorative, functional, or purely aesthetic, we work to source pieces with genuine character and longevity.
Individual Pieces, Not Bulk Buying
This service is focused on individual items or small groups of pieces, rather than full collections or bulk purchasing. It is particularly suited to those seeking:
-
Statement furniture
-
Character lighting
-
Decorative or architectural pieces
-
Unusual or hard-to-find items
If you are instead looking to sell antiques or vintage items, you may find our Sell to Us or We Buy Antiques pages more relevant, as these outline our buying and appraisal services.
Authenticity, Condition & Practical Considerations
When sourcing antiques and vintage furniture, careful attention is given to:
-
Age and originality
-
Condition and usability
-
Signs of honest wear versus damage
-
Suitability for modern use
Where appropriate, we can also advise on sympathetic repair or presentation, ensuring the integrity of the piece is respected.
How the Sourcing Process Works
While each enquiry is different, the process typically involves:
-
An initial discussion to define requirements
-
Ongoing communication as suitable pieces are identified
-
Clear guidance and transparency throughout
We aim to keep the process clear, informed, and flexible, recognising that sourcing the right piece often takes time.
A Connected, Circular Approach
Our sourcing service sits naturally alongside our buying activities. Many of the pieces we source have lived previous lives in homes or businesses and continue that journey with new owners.
Likewise, if you later decide to part with a piece, our We Buy Antiques service offers a clear and considered route forward.
This creates a thoughtful, circular approach to antiques and vintage furniture — one that values longevity, reuse, and informed decision-making.
If you are instead looking to sell antiques or vintage items, our We Buy Antiques page explains how we approach individual pieces, while our Sell to Us page outlines the different selling routes available depending on your situation.
