Welcome to Restorabilia, a proudly family-owned furniture store and furniture design studio based in Cape Town, South Africa.

 

Founded in 1983 by Nick and Marcelle Harding, Restorabilia began as a passion project—sourcing and restoring vintage furniture to its former glory. Over time, as our reputation and expertise grew, we evolved into a leading custom furniture design studio in Cape Town, specialising in bespoke, handcrafted furniture that reflects both timeless craftsmanship and contemporary style.

​

Today, our focus is firmly on furniture manufacturing and design, with each piece made to order in our on-site workshop. Our showroom, located alongside the studio, offers a curated display of our portfolio—showcasing the range, quality, and detail of our custom creations. This seamless setup allows our team to collaborate closely and ensure each item is designed and built to your exact specifications.

​

At Restorabilia, we are proud of our team—many of whom have been with us for over 30 years. Their skill, experience, and attention to detail are the backbone of our business. We believe in a joyful, respectful work environment, and it shows in the quality of every piece that leaves our hands.

Whether you're designing a single custom piece or furnishing an entire home, Restorabilia offers personal service, expert craftsmanship, and furniture that’s made to last.
