Here you’ll find practical guides, courses and resources that help you source with confidence, recognize quality and make better decisions at every market and shop.
EXPERIENCE Buying Trips
Explore Europe through its antiques. Join me for small-group and private buying trips across England and France designed for collectors, design-minded travelers and vintage sellers who want real access to the markets, fairs and countryside dealers where the best pieces are found. We spend our days sourcing and exploring the charm of the region. These trips are relaxed, practical and rooted in the thrill of discovery.
The GUIDE.
I’m Kathy, your antiques curator and coach. Atelier grew out of years spent exploring French and English markets, digging through muddy barn aisles and sourcing pieces that tell a story. Along the way, I built a business grounded in craftsmanship, history and discernment. Atelier is a resource for design lovers, vintage sellers and curious travelers who want knowledge and a more intentional way of collecting. Whether you area collector or business owner, I’m glad you’re here.
client REVIEWS
Kathy is like a walking, talking treasure map organized, full of insider knowledge, and an absolute pro at sniffing out the best finds. I had a list of things I wanted, and she knew exactly where to go to track them down.– Jocelyn
As always, Atelier Chatelaine does not disappoint. This is my 2nd time buying a vintage rolling pin from Kathy who is very selective in selecting the best available vintage products! Love it!– Ginette
Kathy has this way of making you feel like you’re not alone. She’s warm, insightful, and cuts through the noise with so much clarity. I left our session with a clear plan and, more importantly, the confidence to finally act on it. Highly recommend her for your business.– Amanda
I grew up with brick homes in northern England - almost unheard of in my home now in Alberta! My brick mold reminded me of my childhood. I use it for storing monogrammed vintage napkins, also from Atelier Chatelaine, on my dining table...– Sheila
I cannot even begin to express the joy and excitement of the arrival of this delightfully elegant lady! As always great care was taken to wrap this painting to ensure its safe journey. Thanks so much Kathy for all you do to source these lovely pieces of history.– Tammee
...Kathy is the best to work with! She was so patient with me, in finding the perfect painting for my home! It is now my prized possession...– Jordyn
