We told marketing we sell solid wood furniture, not race cars.
Marketing told us "everyone loves race week, just make it work."

šŸŽļø Optimal Downforce: Precision-tuned vintage accent chairs built for long endurance stints (lounging).

šŸ·ļø 15% off orders up to $2,999
šŸ·ļø 20% off purchases of $3,000 and above

Spanning the 1920s to the 1960s, every design in this archive is a hand-restored original—commissioned across the Midcentury Modern and Art Deco eras, crafted from old, solid teak, and defined by decades of earned patina.

Because these are one-of-a-kind originals, once a piece is sold, it’s gone.

Flipping through a crate of records, pulling a sleeve from the pack, and studying the artwork up close—the physical ritual of collecting music is something digital streaming has never replaced.⁠
⁠
For nearly ten years, Vinylsavedmylife has championed that hands-on pursuit of physical music. While they now anchor four store-in-store spaces across Singapore, their pop-ups remain an intimate forum where collector culture, vintage formats, and community naturally align.⁠
⁠
This weekend, they bring something truly exceptional to our showroom floor: an original 78 RPM player, alongside a rare selection of original Chinese 78 shellac discs. Spanning these historic early recordings through to vinyl, cassettes, and classic CDs, their crates invite you to experience music across distinct technological eras.⁠
⁠
Dig through their curated crates exclusively at The Vintage Fair 2026.⁠
⁠
In the crates & on display:⁠
šŸŽ¶ An original working 78 RPM player with rare Chinese 78 shellac discs⁠
šŸŽ¶ Hand-picked original vinyl records across funk, soul, rock, and jazz⁠
šŸŽ¶ Analogue cassette tapes and foundational CD releases⁠
⁠
Hear the needle drop and uncover a piece of sound history alongside our vintage furniture collection on Level 3.⁠

When 1960s European modernism called for stripped-back minimalism, regional Asian woodworkers interpreted the Midcentury blueprint through a distinct cultural lens.⁠
⁠
Rather than settling for unadorned surfaces, a Javanese master carpenter saw an opportunity to demonstrate generational pride. Combining mid-mod proportions and tapered pencil legs with regional chisel work, he detailed every shelf lip, drawer rim, and frame edge with continuous, hand-carved scalloping.⁠
⁠
This rare piece embodies the dialogue at the heart of our vintage collection: the intersection of Western mid-century silhouettes, Asian artisanal individuality, and honest material provenance.⁠
⁠
🪵 Solid Aged Wood: Crafted from old, solid teak with an earned patina, warmth, and depth naturally created over decades.⁠
šŸ”Ŗ Generational Handcraft: Every single scallop was carved by hand from solid teak—softening the linear profile and catching ambient light across its rhythmic indentations.⁠
šŸ“ Asymmetric Layout: A considered composition pairing an enclosed cupboard and tiered display shelves with an open vertical-slat wing on the left, letting natural light filter freely through the side profile.⁠
⁠
Circa 1950s–1960s. An original, one-of-a-kind vintage statement holding the character and pride of the craftsman who built it.⁠
⁠
Now available for viewing at our showroom.⁠

⁠
A home gains its quiet depth not from uniformity, but through the deliberate tension between clean modern spaces and storied objects that carry genuine history.⁠
⁠
Following their celebrated debut with us this past April, altNEU returns to Journey East for the autumn edition of The Vintage Fair.

Founded by two friends united by a passion for honest preservation, their curation brings warmth to contemporary living through artifacts that narrate a story rooted in tradition.⁠
⁠
In a landscape dominated by mass production, their eye gravitates toward forgotten tableware, vessels, and curious decorative forms. Every single piece is hand-picked, researched, and closely examined to ensure authenticity—allowing for open, meaningful conversations about the origins, materials, and domestic lives these objects once lived.⁠
⁠
Meet the founders and discover quiet fragments of time this October.⁠
⁠
What to explore:⁠
šŸŗ Curated European and regional vintage homeware and vessels⁠
šŸŗ Authentic decorative artifacts with documented provenance⁠
šŸŗ Unique tabletop objects selected to bring warmth and texture into modern interiors⁠
⁠
Spend the weekend digging through design histories alongside eight independent collectors and our vintage wood furniture collection.⁠

⁠
A new week brings a quiet sense of possibility—a clean slate for thought, form, and observation.⁠
⁠
Working out of their Singapore studio, translates this rhythm into tactile, narrative art. By pairing hand-built ceramics with sculptural floristry, their practice navigates the dialogue between the lasting weight of fired clay and the fleeting life of botanicals.⁠
⁠
Rather than masking flaws, they celebrate raw imperfections. Each stoneware vessel is shaped entirely by hand, resulting in singular silhouettes with distinct irregularities that invite you to slow down, touch, and discover wonder in the unconventional.⁠
⁠
Encounter their narrative vessels and sculptural floral compositions at The Vintage Fair, Oct 3-4 2026.⁠
⁠
Discover their showcase:⁠
🌸 Hand-built stoneware ceramic foundations⁠
🌸 Sculptural floristry highlighting botanical form and texture⁠
🌸 One-of-a-kind narrative art pieces celebrating raw imperfection⁠
⁠
Immerse yourself in authentic craftsmanship alongside eight independent collectors and curators, set within our Level 3 showroom.⁠
