Satisfy your desire for royal reveries and transform your plain home into a whimsical palace with the right pieces of decor and furniture from these local brands

Home for Royalty

Well never be royals’-singer-songwriter Lorde once told us. While realistically speaking, it’s true, it’s not exactly gospel truth. One can easily feel like royalty by simply revamping his/her/their home into a regal residence.

This also doesn’t necessarily mean expensive, long, and big renovations—which many find inconvenient and stressful. A simple home can be easily refurbished into a chateau by subtly adding design elements from the Baroque, Rococo, and Victorian period. These are aesthetics that you might have seen in period dramas like The Great, Bridgerton, Downton Abbey, and Emma.


Characterized by extraordinarily ornate and dramatic architectural, artistic, and decorative styles, this kind of interior design will turn your fairy tale dream of living like dukes and duchesses into reality.

From ornate molding and picturesque wallpapers to brass and glass accent decors, we listed three home furniture and decor brands where you can source inspiration for your dream home.

DEQORY HOME
Founded during the height of the pandemic by actress-turned-businesswoman Zarah Tolentino-Lapino, Deqory Home is a homegrown furniture store that specializes in Greco-Roman European furniture, Rococo and Baroque mirrors, fireplace, panels, moldings, and ceiling medallions.
