Twenty Third by Deanne began with vintage finds gathered on travels, including its first Turkish vintage pillows, chosen for their beautiful colors, worn-in textures and the stories held in every weave. What started with a few vintage rugs and a little dream grew into something much bigger.
Today Twenty Third sources its pieces from artisans across the globe, including Indonesia, Turkey and beyond, and handpicks its vintage items from small villages. Its collections are limited, and because each vintage piece is one of a kind, the exact same piece can be hard to find again.
Twenty Third also offers custom sourcing for anyone looking for something specific, from a vintage piece to a particular design, and runs a design trade program for designers, architects and trade professionals.
