More about Rustic Furniture

Rustic design isn’t exactly a movement, like mid-century or minimalism, but something like a growing recognition by designers that many of the purely functional objects of old timey and rural life have a unique charm, not to mention exquisite practical forms. Whether they’re woven baskets, sturdy pine stools, or shelving so gorgeous it hardly needs a purpose, objects in our rustic furniture collection have a great physical presence that’s sure to enliven just about any room.

If you’re wondering how to incorporate rustic elements into your home or just need a little inspiration, never fear, we’ve got plenty of cool ideas. One sleek look is to pair these rustic pieces with the thoroughly modern but similarly functional designs of industrial decor. An ultra chic blend of modern and retro, using a set of woven baskets next to a brass floor lamp or on top of a hazed-glass and steel coffee table ensures a space has balance and texture. Try finishing off this look with a single piece that blends both eras: a faux cowhide rug with a funky abstract pattern hits all the right notes.

We also think these pieces go perfectly with Scandinavian-style decor. In your bedroom you might already have a light stained wood bed frame and soft woven throws draped over linen sheets. Compliment these organic textures with matching oak floating shelves; mount them right over the bed so you can keep your camp mug of cocoa nearby. Oh, and how about a print of the great outdoors to really set the scene?
