Meet the Curators

Clarendon Fine Antiques was founded by mother-daughter duo Anna Brooks and Cheryl, united by a shared appreciation for travel, antiques, and timeless design. Together, they curate a thoughtfully sourced collection of antique and vintage furniture, lighting, architectural elements, and decorative objects from across Europe.

Anna Brooks developed an appreciation for design from an early age before earning her degree in Interior Design from Auburn University. She has spent the past three years living and working in New York City with renowned designer Nate Berkus, where she refined her eye for antiques, vintage furnishings, and thoughtfully layered interiors.

Cheryl's lifelong love of antiques and interiors was shaped by her upbringing and years spent creating a warm family home. That home—built while she was expecting Anna Brooks and located on a street named Clarendon—inspired the name of the business and remains at the heart of its story.

Based in Birmingham, Alabama, with a presence in New York City, Clarendon Fine Antiques serves collectors, designers, and design enthusiasts across the country while sourcing exceptional pieces throughout Europe. Their hope is to help others create homes that feel collected over time—spaces defined by beauty, character, and lasting craftsmanship.

Hand-selected throughout Europe for collectors, designers, and timeless interiors.

We believe the most beautiful interiors are layered over time, blending styles, eras, and personal stories to create spaces that feel authentic and inviting. Antiques offer a richness of character, craftsmanship, and history that cannot be replicated, and we are honored to share exceptional pieces that become part of the homes—and stories—of their new owners.
