It’s now not only cost-effective, but also fashionable to decorate with pieces found on second-hand trawls rather than those taken straight off the production line. Refurbishing or repurposing outdated materials, a worldwide phenomenon known as upcycling, has given new life to the second-hand furniture trade; and, it also means old styles meet new materials, in turn, giving your home the potential to unpack itself around a unique piece.
And unsurprisingly, Cape Town is right on trend. There’s a glut of used furniture out there, and these Cape Town stores have repurposed and re-invented the pre-owned merchandise; or, have simply just blown off the dust—leaving the revamping part up to you. Eco Furniture Design Though not technically a second-hand furniture store, this environmentally friendly manufacturer sells beautifully crafted outdoor and indoor furniture for both the home and office at repurposed rates. Committed to an ethos centred on sustainability, the online shop (it also has a small Woodstock storefront) uses reclaimed wood, like left over Oregon pine from home builds or meranti from cabinetry, as well as responsibly grown SA timber and invasive alien species, like blackwood and blue gum, to piece together stunning dining room tables, bed frames, bookcases and more. Not to mention, Eco Furniture Design does customised work too; so, stop mulling over the look and feel of that television unit and give these green furniture specialists a call.
