The Velvet Collection
Pieces with presence.
A growing register of genuine vintage pieces, styling props and original-style reproductions. Every entry is clear about whether it is sold, starts with a hire request and owner-approved quote, or is still being recorded. A hire label is not a fixed availability promise.
Old England
A candlelit styling study.
A genuine Velvet Directory practice tablescape: layered floral china, framed artwork, lace, roses and warm candlelight gathered into an Old England mood.
These photographs show a visual direction for on-location styling. They are not an itemised hire list, fixed package, product listing or promise that every pictured detail will be available for a particular date.
