Inspiration for the decoration of a room many times comes from a single object - art, china, mirrors and other treasures that reflect the beauty of their surroundings. Our collections of antique arts span the European continent and offer an array of sophistication, style and taste as well as representation of centuries past.
These decorative antiques were designed by European artisans to be stylish and artistic yet offer function and purpose. Originally, these peices graced European homes as functional fountains, artwork, lighting (from crystal chandeliers to lanterns), mirrors, statuary and simply miscellaneous items that range from antique birdcages to a butler's ball.
We invite you to browse our current inventory of antique decorative arts online by choosing a menu item on the left, or contacting us at 410.827.8167 and we will help you find that special piece to complement your space.
In addition to being able to offer decorative antiques and antique art, DHS Designs also offers a variety of antique garden ornaments, antique continental furniture and antique period mantels for your home or business establishment. DHS Designs is a nationally recognized source for extraordinary antiques - from simple to rare, all are chosen with a singular aesthetic of beauty of form and richness of style.
