Traditional design is inherently durable because it is rooted in forms and materials that have become timeless over centuries. While we all are inspired by fashionable “of the moment” trends from the design world, we admire most the continuous thread of traditional design that evolves and never disappears.
As an early “New World” city, Charleston developed a love affair and fascination with beauty, design and the decorative arts - initially to emulate European tastes and refinement. So our city’s design DNA is infused with traditional genes that provide a sturdy anchor & reference for our business today.
Our core traditionalist aesthetic engages the past yet harmonizes with modern elements & tastes to create interiors with 21st Century fluency and context. With clientele ranging from nesting new homeowners to notable American interior designers, we are constantly on the hunt for items with strong visual beauty, quality construction and fine materials to make shopping at Well Furnished an adventure of possibilities. We are united in our appreciation for the uncommon.
Within our shop you’ll discover how period antiques, well executed reproductions & newly minted items can intertwine with ease. An intriguing mix of handcrafted furnishings, inviting textiles, subtle layers of light, and striking works of art and a splash of whimsy create a magical atmosphere. Well furnished rooms have allure that makes living beautifully within them second nature.
Using our decades of design expertise we create ever-changing & inspirational vignettes and customers can pluck items to enrich their interior spaces. Also on hand are seasonally inspired gifts & beautiful jewelry to bring joy to those who matter most & lovingly gift wrapped so giving is easy!
We are here to guide you in the careful selection & purposeful arrangement of objects within a space - daringly sparse or lavishly detailed - necessary to build undeniable visual allure.
