A styled parlor room with a reworked blue velvet settee, plants and candlelight by Bourge Responsibly

One-of-a-kind furniture, rescued and reworked.

Beautiful and a little haunted.

​

Say it like bouge — rhymes with rouge, from bourgeois. A verb: to furnish your space with intention, on your own terms.

Richmond Tattoo & Arts Convention

THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT TO THE

That's a wrap on this year's convention at the DoubleTree in Midlothian. I co-sponsored the 1920s and '30s Art Deco pin-up contest, designed the runway set, and judged on Sunday. Thank you to everyone who came by to say hi. If we met there, or you're just finding me now, join the list to see new pieces first.

About

Meet Elizabeth

I find pieces worth saving and remake them into something worth keeping. A New Orleans eye, made in Richmond.

Commissions

Made for a specific space

Have a piece with good bones, or a space that needs the right one? Tell me what you’re picturing and we’ll start there.

“We talked about many different options for the finish and color, but once Elizabeth got the old stain off she found beautiful wood and advised us to keep it that way. It's a truly stunning piece of furniture now and matches our style."

Chris and Ellen Hall, VA

Tell me about your space.
