Heirlooms have a history and our designs do in their own way. Each of them has a story — and most of them are even true!
Rudy Van Thiel Sr.
Traditional Comfort

Pieces that feel personal and unique, warm and inviting. That’s what you’ll find in this new collection, down to the smallest details and playful product names.

Time-Tested Materials

Solid wood and veneer build durable, long-lasting frames in silhouettes that are both familiar and wholly unique.

Antique Look and Feel

It’s all about the multi-step finishing process. Finishes are hand-applied, removed and reapplied for a layered look, then distressed, glazed, stained or rubbed down to capture Van Thiel’s signature style.

Finishing Touches

Each piece gets hand-selected, era-specific hardware — like aged bronze pulls and mesh inserts — for a truly heirloom feel.

The devil is in the details. It’s not just about the finishing’s effects...but also its application. Careful attention is given to areas that would truly experience wear and tear.
