About Us

Puma & Bear is a destination website where customers can come to find the best for their homes. Most of the products on the site will surface the products we have researched and vetted. Once a customer has found something they like, the link on the page will take them to the sites where they can make a purchase.

We have kept the accessories section where we sell the items directly to the customer.

We hope that you enjoy the products we have found and may the products make your home a place of great joy and enrichment.

 
Puma & Bear, London was founded in 2019 and is a company dedicated to offering pieces of quality, craftsmanship, design, beauty, and function. We offer objects and furniture from the 16th century on through to today, with a focus on sustainability.

Two of our product lines are specifically dedicated to sustainability, our restored pieces and our upcycled pieces. We feel strongly that we need to take steps as a company to help reduce the rate of consumption of natural resources and decrease our waste. As a result, we take pieces that are reaching the end of their functional lives and restore or upcycle them. We hope this promotes sustainability whilst keeping the craftsmanship of the past alive and extending the lives of these amazing pieces. 

The other three product lines are focus on objects for the home that are beautiful, functional, and different, regardless of the date they were created. Our belief is that extraordinary craftsmanship is timeless.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

 

Kristin S. 
October 2020

"I couldn't be happier with my experience purchasing an antique bureau from Puma and Bear! Kristen, the owner, has a sharp eye for beautiful items, and after a months-long international search, I finally found exactly what I was looking for on her shop site. Some people may be wary of buying antiques online, but Kristen was very pleasant and prompt in her communication, and everything arrived exactly as pictured and described. I opted for a bit of restoration by Puma and Bear on a small, but key part of the piece, and was very pleased with the results showing skillful use of wood from the same era and origin. Working with Kristen was a pleasure, and the sale was processed smoothly, and quickly. However, the real testament is the amount of persistence Kristen had in helping me navigate a complex international shipping process after the sale. With other dealers, the interaction ends with the sale, but with Puma and Bear, Kristen doggedly followed up on a very lengthy shipping process, and kept me regularly posted about the status. I had a five-star experience, and will definitely return to Puma and Bear when shopping for special pieces in the future."
