What is "real" Shabby Chic?


Our business was born from of our love of Rachel Ashwell's Shabby Chic slipcovered furniture and her design philosophy that furniture can be comfortable, family friendly---yet elegant! Rachel is a former stylist and set designer from England who has made the term "shabby chic" famous. It is important to understand that although "shabby chic" is a term used commonly by EBay sellers, decorators, flea market vendors and retailers near and far, it is actually her licensed trademarked brand. Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic Designs began with her high end/couture line of furniture (RAD, Studio, Tufted and Collection case goods) , accessories, sleepwear and bedding. More recently, Rachel Ashwell designed and produced an additional line called Simply Shabby Chic for Target. The items at available Target have been mass produced at a price point more affordable for the masses. At Adorn, we offer the complete line of original, couture lines of Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic furniture, bedding and accessories. We are proud to be an authorized dealer for Rachel!
