Etsy is an excellent source for original mid-century decor and furniture, but it's sometimes hard to know where to find the good stuff. I've gone through hundreds of Etsy vintage shops and collated my top 10:
1. Hindsvik
This Canadian shop stocks mid-century furniture, textiles, and decor, including a good range of Danish wooden objects and German ceramics.

3. 1001vintage
Based in Amsterdam, this shop offers a large collection of vintage home décor including an impressive range of West German vases. I’ve also spotted some rather sweet Abraham Palatnik figurines as well as pieces by Royal Copenhagen.
