A considered curation of pieces to make hearts sing.
Thoughtful finds, timeless style.
Understanding Curation
I source with intention
I personally search auctions, estate sales, thrift stores, markets, private sellers and small makers to find pieces with story, soul and sculptural appeal. Only items that feel truly special - the ones that made me smile and make my heart sing - make it into my curation. There is so much sameness out there, my mission is to celebrate the unique.
Each piece is carefully assessed
I make every effort to hold and research a piece before I buy it, ensuring it meets my standards for quality, age, finish, condition and design integrity. Believe me, I’ve bought items unseen that were not what I expected - an experience I certainly don’t want for you. I embrace marks of time as with them comes character but age alone isn’t enough - a piece must also be functional. One of the wonders of older pieces is how effortlessly they can fit into modern life. That’s where magic lies.
Styled, photographed and presented with care
Every curated piece is cleaned, styled and photographed by me. My goal is to help you truly envision it in your home. With unique pieces, it can be hard to picture how the old fits with the new - that’s what sets Again by Clare apart. I think deeply about this so you don’t have to.
Available to shop and ready to enjoy
Once listed, each piece is ready to purchase. They make beautiful gifts or thoughtful additions to your home. When sold, every item is carefully and securely packaged and shipped with care - ready to bring history with personality into any space.
A Note from Clare
I’ve always been drawn to pieces that carry a sense of history - objects that have lived lives before ours yet still feel timeless in the present. Curating allows me to honour that magic. Every item I choose is selected for its appeal, character and the spark it brings when you hold it, use it or see it.
My hope is that these pieces bring the same delight to you as they did me. Thank you for exploring my collection - it’s a privilege to share the stories, craftsmanship and quiet wonder of the future of the past with you.
