A passion for vintage.

We are a small business with a workshop in the heart of rural Essex. We sell vintage original furniture, ceramics and glass, and have a particular interest in West German ‘fat lava’ style pottery and Czech glassware, although our stock list is wide-ranging and constantly varying.

Our Story

Turning a passion into a fully-fledged business only became a reality early in 2021 when Nigel left his career of thirty years in the public sector. He is brilliantly supported by wife Sue (who holds down a full-time job with the NHS, but helps out whenever she can – including much sage advice and creative direction!), daughter Lizzie (who is a complete whiz with all things technological) and nephew Oscar (who is logistical support and the muscle behind the outfit!).

At present we sell almost exclusively through our online shops - this website shop, Etsy (@hardyvintageltd), eBay (@hardyvintageinteriors) and Instagram (@hardyvintageinteriors), with the occasional fair thrown in for good measure.

Our listings on this site give a very good flavour of what we sell, but we always have far more than is listed and also take on commissions, so do please contact us if there is something special that you want.

And of course if you have something to sell that fits in with what we love, do please get in touch via the Contact Us page on the site as we are always interested in good quality items that we can find loving new homes for!
