Price History
Description
Design. Playful and quirky, this Cards art line is an enlarged version of vintage playing cards, originating from late 19th century Germany. Featuring classic French suits of hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades, the German design is printed with K for Konig (King), D for dame (Queen) and B for Bube (Jack). Showcased in solid oak frames behind tempered glass.
Our Stylist Says
I love this card-inspired artwork for its playful yet sophisticated aesthetic. Its bold, graphic design works particularly well in contemporary or eclectic interiors, adding a touch of colour and wit to a pared-back space. The oak frame helps it feel substantial without overpowering a room, making it versatile for both living areas and bedroom schemes. For styling, consider pairing it with other vintage or card-themed accessories, or hang it above a neutral sofa or sideboard to create a focal point. The key is to keep surrounding decor understated so the artwork stands out as a statement piece.

About Barker and Stonehouse
A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
