Why brocanterie is so popular: authentic, diverse and sustainable

Are you also a fan of brocanterie? I certainly am. Brocanterie is a collective name for old and antique items that are resold. It is not only sustainable to give items a second life, but it also gives a unique and vintage look to your interior. But why do people actually like brocanterie so much? Below you will find a number of reasons.

Authentic

First of all, brocanterie is very authentic. They are items with a story and that makes them extra special. For example, an old hat box that someone once used during a long journey or an antique mirror that hung in an old castle. By incorporating brocanterie into your interior, you bring a piece of history into your home.

Something for everyone

In addition, brocanterie is very diverse. There are many different items to be found in brocante shops and at brocante markets. From furniture to jewelry and from tableware to lamps. This makes it very easy to find something that suits your taste and interior.

Unique and sustainable

Also, brocanterie is often unique. Because it concerns old and antique items , there are often only a few copies to be found. This means you have something in your home that not everyone has and that is really special.

Finally, brocanterie is also sustainable. By reusing old items, you prevent them from ending up on the waste mountain. In this way, you contribute to a better environment and that is of course a nice bonus.

In short, brocanterie has a lot of advantages. It is authentic , diverse, unique and sustainable. And it gives your interior a beautiful vintage look. What more could you want?
