Welcome to Atelier Chatelaine, where heirlooms aren't just found, they're chosen with purpose.
shop ATELIER HEIRLOOMS
For those who believe in beauty with a story, each piece is hand-selected and ready to become part of your home’s next chapter. Our collection of timeless pieces are sourced directly from the UK and France.
LEARN with Intention
From sourcing heirloom treasures to building a business around them, this is your starting point. Whether you’re here to plan your first brocante trip or finally go all-in on your vintage brand, I’ve created a library of tools to support you. Start small with a curated guide or dive deep with one-on-one coaching designed to help you source, style and sell with confidence. Because knowing what to look for is only half the story—knowing what to do next is everything.
EXPERIENCE Vintage Abroad
From Paris to the countryside, explore the brocantes, barns and shops guided by someone who’s been there (again and again). Whether you're joining a small group Un-Retreat or planning a personalized shopping trip, this is sourcing done differently. Skip the stress, skip the tourist traps. With every itinerary and experience, you'll gain access to real markets, real connections and the kind of vintage you won’t find online.
Vintage seller. Brocante hunter. Business strategist. Guide.
I’m Kathy—curator, coach and your vintage-obsessed guide. Atelier is the result of years spent wandering French markets, navigating muddy barn aisles and building a business that honours craftsmanship, heritage and the thrill of the find. Today, this atelier is more than a shop—it’s a resource for vintage lovers, resellers and creatives who want more than just pretty things. They want heirlooms. Purpose. A path. Whether you're here to decorate your home or grow your business, I’m so glad you found your way.
