When we opened our doors about a quarter of our inventory were vintage, mid-century modern and art deco period pieces. Our vintage furniture has been a huge draw and as you can imagine many of the pieces were picked up early! Architectural Digest picked up our pair of 1940's Poltrona Chairs - which we have since started reproducing here in New England due to popular demand. Elle Decor scooped up the Lupino Bar Cart which we are also reproducing in custom sizes and finishes. There are still a few items left over that have been marked down substantially as we are expecting a container of vintage furniture and accessories this Spring!

Jacob Kulin
This show was produced and curated by artist and sculptor Jacob Kulin, who, using his own artistic talent
will be ‘”presenting the trees in an innovative manner, reformulating some of the more conventional standards of display.” Many of the pedestals and tables were designed and built specifically to suit a given bonsai, a unique means of exhibiting these living, sculptural forms. For this event, Jacob Kulin is highlighting the significance of proper presentation of the bonsai. Jacob has addressed the challenge of finding the proper balance between the bonsai, the pedestal/table on which it is placed, and the surrounding space it occupies. The goal of the show is to explore the true beauty and artistic aesthetic of the bonsai, including technical composition and presentation.
Jacob Kulin is the owner of Kulin Modern. He holds a graduate degree from Cranbrook Academy Art and began using his artistic talents in the making of jewelry, and in particular neck pieces. His fascination with repetition led to his current design direction which is the design and fabrication of wall-mounted sculpture in triptych format. The evolution of his sculpture has been in part influenced by a longstanding admiration for Scandinavian design from the 50's and 60's. His work is defined by clean, modern forms and the use of innovative materials. Currently, his works include a series of tables using metal, glass, and reclaimed hardwoods. These modern pieces maintain a sculptural quality and allow functional use. His work has been featured in numerous publications and on NECN’s New England Dream House.
