There are plenty of good reasons to invest in your interiors. Your home is your refuge from the harsh realities of the outside world. It's where you relax and entertain guests, so it should reflect your personal style and tastes. And while it's tempting to buy cheap stuff in order to fill your house—the decor equivalent of fast fashion—it will surprise no one to find out that it's never as reliable as you'd hope. Which is how more than 12 million tons of furniture end up in U.S. landfills each year. That's because the cheap, mass-produced stuff is simple to obtain and then abandon.

Personally, I've always gravitated towards vintage pieces for my home decor. I like stuff that feels like it's lived a life and tells a story. Items with patina instantly give off a certain character and there's something to be said for having rare pieces that also double as conversation starters. Plus, the furniture built back in the day was often built to last. And in 2024, it's not hard to buy secondhand and vintage furniture online. But it can be expensive. Especially when you're dealing with auction sites or sellers where shipping is a gamble (both in terms of timing and costs).

That's what makes Kaiyo so refreshing. Think of it like this: If 1stDibs and Etsy had a kid, that little guy would be Kaiyo, an online platform where shoppers can buy (and resell) high-quality, pre-owned furnishings. It's “upcycling” for the aesthetically-minded. The eclectic assortment is vast—everything from Restoration Hardware and CB2 to Herman Miller and Ralph Lauren Home. The savings are huge—a modern Ligne Roset dining table, which retails for $4,500 can be bought for just $758. And everything comes with “white glove” delivery, ensuring it arrives safe and will be placed in your home, right where you want it. To help you get started, we've pulled a few of our favorite pieces currently on offer. But, as is the case with vintage and used items, many are one-of-one, so you'd better pull the trigger if you want them for yourself.
