This place is a haven for interior designers, collectors, or just anyone who appreciates items and objects with a rich story. The team at Olive Ateliers sources, imports and curates items from all over the world and opens to the public with a new “drop” twice a month on Saturdays from 9am-2pm.
They even sourced an ancient olive tree from Northern California that stands inside the center of their Atelier, surrounded by objects expertly arranged by their team.
Inside is filled with vintage vases and pots from Turkey (ranging from $90-$875), elm wood benches & stools (ranging from $110-$175), wood bowls ($45+), antique marble plates ($50), breadboards ($70-$120) and cabinets / large furniture ($1950+). While you’re paying a premium, the quality of the items speak for themselves.
My tip: get there early. Like an hour and a half early. People will literally be lining up outside, and the pro shoppers will bring little chairs to sit while they wait. They open their doors and allow a manageable number of people inside, where it’s literally a mad dash to find the items that speak to you, where you’ll place your name or “hold” them, or simply carry them if not too large as you peruse the rest of the store. Almost everything is claimed within the first hour and a half. Think Black Friday sale on steroids.
