I always want to hear the word 'wow,’” Randy Kolhoff, owner and operator of Black Swan Antiques NY, said regarding customers entering his showroom this fall. But who wouldn’t be amazed at the collection Black Swan provides? With its blend of high-quality European antiques, special statement pieces and Kolhoff’s unmistakable eye for design, this Hamptons-based shop brings bold character and wow factor to every Round Top show.
Founded in 2006, Black Swan has spent nearly two decades outfitting the homes of tastemakers, creatives and design leaders in the Hamptons and across the globe. Kolhoff’s background in furniture design—working with major manufacturers and studying antique forms—laid the foundation for his philosophy: that furniture is art. “I look at furniture as art with function,” he explained. “You surround yourself with it, and it should be as aesthetically pleasing as it is comfortable and functional.”
Black Swan’s space mirrors those East Coast roots: polished yet playful, intentional practicality and unique in its aesthetics. Their clientele spans some of the best names in the design trade, longtime collectors and homeowners seeking to add some sizzle to their space.
This fall lineup delivers that promise. Black Swan is bringing a jaw-dropping early 1800s ship’s figurehead, as well as a quality collection of European leather from the 1930s.
The showroom itself is designed to thrill. Every corner pulses with personality, filled with finds that strike a balance between form, function and originality. From vintage Americana to global accents to gorgeous mid-century modern furniture, everything in the showroom was carefully picked to lock in that wow factor.
