Canadian Antique Furniture

Learn about our collection of Canadian antique furniture.

We here at Painted Porch have a wonderful selection of authentic Canadian antique furniture. From beautiful step back cupboards, sideboards and buffets, to charming benches and blanket boxes, you will find many different warm colors of Canadian antique furniture. Many pieces you will find in our shop date all the way back to the 1800’s and have all of their original shelving, knobs and paint.

We often travel to Canada – particularly the Quebec countryside - to explore and find new antiques to bring back to our store in Massachusetts. Antiquing is a particular love of ours that is not only our day job, but also a therapeutic hobby of ours. There’s nothing like finding a hidden treasure amongst the rubble during a day of antiquing to bring a smile to your face.

In addition to antiquing in Canada, we also do antiquing in England and France. Generally the pieces we bring back from France are made from fruit wood (cherry, etc.) or English Pine and are in their original finish - minus a little polish. What we love about Canadian antique furniture is that a common practice among the French Canadian’s some 200 years ago was to paint their furniture. Often these pieces of furniture have been painted and repainted over the decades as they’ve been passed down from generation to generation. So there is this special unique quality about them that really gives them a richer story. Some pieces will have layers and layers of paint that we’ll actually chip away at to find the original color that was applied so many years ago. Often what we’ll discover are rich, earthy and warm shades of primary colors like red, blue and yellow. The yellow is often a gorgeous soft mustard color. When mixed in a room with unpainted wood furniture, the Canadian antique pieces will often stand out in a subtle manner that will add instant character, charm and warmth to any room. Their soft earthy colors will easily add a richness and quirkiness to your country home décor. And that’s what we love about these pieces and hope you will too.
