Price is the last piece of information you should look for when approaching artistic design, collectible design, or functional art. But seven opponents have shared the secret information of some unique pieces that should be on your wishlist even if you’re not a collector of designs. Industry experts are well aware of the value of this particular class of objects, but if you are new to this topic, let’s explain what makes it so special.
Collectibles aren’t consumable (unless you’re a serial collector), and that makes them sustainable: You might think twice before throwing away a piece of furniture that you gave value. The Limited Editions are a lot like pieces of art: gestures, thought, awareness, meaning, craftsmanship and time are what give them shape. Hand cutting is ethical and more humane: and you can see this. Vintage design means bringing history and the philosophy of the age into your living space: it tells the ideals and stories that need to be told today.
Objects can be powerful tools if you bring their creator’s adventures with them: you want to have magical objects in your living space. Collectibles go well with just about anything, no matter your style and taste. We called up some of the hottest collectible design galleries to come up with a wish list for these holidays: Manyera, Caroan Gallery, Nilufar, Fumi Gallery, Rosanna Orlandi, Etage Projects, and Galleria Rossella Colombari. Browse the gallery and start revising your design ideas.
