Neo Decor Home Finds
21
items I have put together this list of home decor pieces that I have on my wishlist - it is inspired by the Neo Decor motion which is a re-inactment of the 1920-30s Art Decor Movement.
If you're after a candle that smells bright without being sweet, this one's worth a look. It's sugared citrus and tropical fruit with a soft green edge, in a plain matte glass jar that won't fight with anything else in the room. The medium lasts abou...
Capri Blue Volcano Capiz Jar Candle
An easy way to bring the neo decor mood into a room. Sugared citrus and tropical fruit with a soft green edge, in a plain matte glass jar that keeps the look quiet while the scent does the work. The medium burns for about 75 hours, so it's one for ev...
Canggu Acacia Cane Armoire
Cane and velvet together feels very neo decor. It's a lightweight oak frame with caning, softened by green velvet upholstery. The silhouette is airy enough that it works as a statement piece in a sitting room without taking it over. It's by Merve Kah...
Merve Kahraman Velvet Cane Chair
Stone and warm wood together feel quietly neo decor. Marble and acacia are stacked into a sculptural little silhouette with a walnut finish, and at 46cm tall and 35.5cm square it's small enough to sit beside a chair or a bed. Marble is porous, so it'...
Lucas Marble Side Table
A long, low console where the wood does the decorating, which is also very neo decor. It's dark mappa burl veneer over tropical hardwood, finished with iron hardware. At 193cm wide and 46cm tall, with two drawers and two shelves, it gives you plenty ...
Betti Wood Media Console
Lavender velvet on a walnut-finish frame is a soft, slightly unexpected take on the dining chair, and it feels very neo decor. They're made in Italy from sustainably sourced wood and come as a pair. The velvet is tested for durability, so they're mea...
Amy Velvet-Upholstered Wood Dining Chairs, Set of 2
Cream linen on a sculptural oak frame, with an L-shaped seat the frame carries easily. It looks soft but sits firm, thanks to a spring seat and a structured, streamlined cushion. It's exclusive to Anthropologie and arrives fully assembled.
Herbin Linen Lounge Chair
A bedside table with a bit more going on. Three drawers on metal glides, a cotton canvas inlay set into a wood frame, and brass-finish handles. At 61cm square it's compact enough for beside the bed, and it arrives assembled with anti-tip hardware inc...
Hale Bedside Chest of Drawers
Swirling marble on a slim brushed brass pedestal, in a short or tall size. Small, but the stone gives it presence.
Swirling Marble Side Table
Turned bobbin legs are a traditional detail, and the deep burgundy finish makes this one feel bolder and more current. At 70cm tall with a 56cm by 46cm top, there's room for books and a mug, and it arrives assembled.
Bobbin Side Table
The base is the whole story here: three rounded shapes that look delicately balanced on top of one another, under a blonde ash veneer oval top. It's a sculptural table that seats four to six, and it looks good in the room even between meals.
Sonali Wooden Oval Dining Table
This is where the curve does the work. There are no sharp corners here, just a continuous wraparound back and arm that flows around the seat, so the whole sofa reads as one soft, sculptural shape. That's very much the neo decor idea: an organic form ...
Christopher Knight Home Avalon 128" Oversized Curved Chenille Sectional Sofa
A mid-century classic, simplified: a low back, square arms and solid wood legs. It's compact at about 65cm wide, and the range of colours means you can keep it neutral or let it be the bold note in the room.
Mid Century Modern Upholstered Accent Chair
A lounge chair and ottoman in the mid-century tradition: smooth top-grain leather over a warm, layered wood frame, with the ottoman included so you can properly put your feet up. A gentle 15° tilt and memory foam cushions keep it comfortable for a lo...
Mid-Century Genuine Leather Lounge Chair and Ottoman,Ergonomic Recliner with High Density Wood Frame for Living Room & Office
Slim glass cylinders on a simple wall plate give you soft, layered light without adding any bulk. They're sold as a pair, about 58cm tall, and dimmable with a compatible bulb, so they work either side of a mirror or a bed.
KAYLA Modern Glass Wall Sconces, Indoor Wall Lighting Wall Light Fixtures, Vanity Light with Glass Shade(2-Sets)
A faded, Persian-style pattern that feels old and lived-in, in a flat-woven rug that's easy to live with. It has a smooth, velvety feel underfoot and a slight sheen that catches the light, and it's machine washable. It's a good way to bring some old-...
Nourison Abby Machine Washable Indoor only Persian Distressed Area Rug
A long velvet bolster is a quiet way to break up a row of square cushions. This one is cotton-blend velvet, hand finished with a self-piped edge at each rounded end, so it looks tailored without shouting. It gives soft support and a block of colour o...
Signature Velvet Bolster Pillow
A starburst clock is a mid-century shape that has come back round, and this one is softened with antique brass molding and a gently domed convex glass. It works as a clock and as a small piece of wall sculpture, and it's an easy way to add some metal...
Solene Starburst Wall Clock
Tole is a traditional decorative metalwork, and here it gets a simple gilded finish on galvanized iron. It's a warm little touch of gold for a wall, and it comes in four designs, so you can hang one on its own or gather a few together.
Fleur de Tole Gold Wall Decor
Six ruffled antique-glass shades set along an antique brass frame, a soft, slightly frilled take on the linear chandelier. The ruffled glass adds some movement to the straight brass line, so it feels gentle rather than formal.
Gwen 6-Light Linear Chandelier
A vintage botanical print is a quiet way to bring some history into a modern room, and the designer framing means it looks finished as soon as it's hung. It adds a soft, organic note that sits well beside brass and velvet.
