Christopher Collection has been known for its curated blend of luxury furnishings, beautiful art pieces and timeless charm.
Now with a newly acquired trove of French antiques, the store is adding a whole new layer of story, soul and essence to its showroom floor—and possibly into your home!
Whether you’re a devoted design lover or simply someone who appreciates character in a space, this latest collection is something special.
Curated with character + history
Designers from Christopher Collection visited France with a mission: to find antiques that showcased what timeless furnishings really mean.
Each item that was chosen during the trip speaks to the Christopher Collection aesthetic: a perfect marriage of modern luxury and old-world elegance. These pieces are heirlooms in the making.
This approach is what sets Christopher Collection apart. The space feels less like a store and more like an artfully-designed home—one where texture, light and scale are all thoughtfully considered. With the latest European addition, the collection becomes even more dynamic, adding layers of depth and cultural richness to its signature look.
Beyond the pieces themselves, the sourcing trip reflects the team’s deep commitment to craftsmanship and storytelling.
In a world of mass-produced furniture and fleeting trends, they’re doubling down on authenticity—and inviting their customers to do the same.
Meet Leigh Ann Harris—the curator of these antiques


At the center of it all is Leigh Ann Harris, whose eye for beauty and passion for thoughtful design bring warmth and meaning to every piece she curated while in France.
“There are so many pieces that I love—it would be hard to pick one! I enjoy the experience of finding unique pieces for our clients and customers and imagining how each piece might fit into their home.
When I’m curating, I’m always looking for conversation pieces—the more unique the better! I want their guests to be drawn to the piece and automatically ask about it.”
Leigh Ann Harris, Chistopher Collection
From the grand antique fairs of Paris to hidden gems in the French countryside, Leigh Ann’s sourcing process is deeply personal. It’s not just about what looks good—it’s about what feels right.
Her goal is to spark joy, connection and curiosity with every find.
Where timeless meets today


With these pieces being sold as one-of-a-kind, each visit to Christopher Collection offers something new to uncover. And as always, the team is there to help you find the perfect item that reflects your style, your story and space.
