About the Home & Colonial Shop

The philosophy of the two families who created Home & Colonial was to establish a business with true lifestyle appeal. As such, a stunning showroom of beautifully displayed antiques has evolved and grown into a beacon of style, sophistication and inspiration!

Our 30 specialist antique dealers offer a wealth of cumulative expertise which is at everyone’s disposal and this has helped the shop build ‘unique items for sale’ into a trademark.

The shop is set over 5 floors, each with its own distinctive theme.
• Traditional Antiques - Fine Furniture, Lighting, Textiles, Paintings, Metal Ware, Glass
• 20th Century Design - Art Deco and Post War Design
• Country Living - Oak and Pine Country Furniture, English, French and Scandinavian
  Painted Furniture and Clocks and Watches
• Decorative Antiques - Jewellery and Silver , Vintage Clothing, Decorative Furniture,
  Books and Sporting Memorabilia

The fifth floor is where you will find The Attic café providing delicious home-cooked food in a lovely setting with views over Berkhamsted’s rooftops. Like the shop itself, the café has a huge following of regular customers and is greatly appreciated by people who have come from further afield and want to make their visit more of a day out!

Over the years, antiques from Home & Colonial have appeared in BBC period dramas such as Sense & Sensibility and Little Dorrit. They have also featured in many national magazines and been named by BBC Homes & Antiques as ‘One of Britain’s Top 10 Unbeatable Shopping Treats’.
