Designer and antiques expert Tara Shaw invites you into the fascinating world of collecting and designing with antiques and offers a fresh look at using them to create luxurious atmosphere throughout your home
Renowned antiques dealer Tara Shaw is a New Orleans native and the go-to supplier of French and European antique treasures for Thomas O’Brien, Bunny Williams, and a host of other AD100 A-listers. She is also a designer who has created countless exquisite interiors and has just launched her own branded furniture line with Century Furniture.
Shaw’s book Soul of the Home introduced readers to the basics of collecting and designing with antiques. Her new book offers a fresh look and a deeper dive into the subject. For the Love of Antiques presents five extraordinary antiques-filled interior design projects (most of which have not been published), and offers readers an accessible master class in decorating with European antiques.
In addition, there is an expanded and updated shopping guide (a reader favorite) to the best antiques-hunting spots in France and throughout Europe. Stories from Shaw’s vintage-treasure hunting adventures add charm, and she shares her wealth of knowledge to help readers understand how to choose the right pieces and create rooms filled with provenance and beauty.
