Furniture rooted in craft, material, and place.
AARDE presents furniture and objects from Java and Bali for contemporary spaces in Southern Africa.
A focused partnership
AARDE works closely with B the Source to bring a considered selection of furniture and objects to Southern Africa.
B the Source
B the Source works across Java and Bali, producing furniture shaped by local materials, traditional processes, and everyday use.
The collection moves between domestic function and sculptural form.
AARDE is the exclusive representative of B the Source in Southern Africa.
Collection
A curated collection of furniture and objects shaped by natural materials, craftsmanship, and timeless design.
Grounded in Material
Materials change the atmosphere of a room long before furniture does..
We believe in furniture that carries a sense of place.
The collection draws on timber, stone, woven fibres, metal, and plaster - pieces shaped by thoughtful simplicity, and enduring craftsmanship.
Each object reflects a quiet balance between sculptural form and everyday living.
Designed for considered spaces
Chosen for spaces where material and atmosphere matter. Working alongside designers, architects, and private clients, we source pieces that bring depth, texture, and sculptural simplicity into contemporary Southern African spaces.
