As is often the case with team projects, one voice tends to be louder than the other. That said, every so often, two equally brilliant forces come together and release a masterpiece that showcases the best of both. Case in point: English lifestyle brand House of Hackney’s collection of quintessentially British decor for Anthropologie.

Today, anyone with an affinity for subtle opulence and a moody sensibility can shop the exclusive series of wares that are equal parts charming and exquisitely detailed. We applaud anyone with enough self-control to resist adding all 215 pieces to your online shopping cart.

From maximalist wallpapers that look like something out of an 18th-century mansion in the English countryside to sumptuous chairs covered in luscious fabrics, the House of Hackney collection will surely make you want to move to the United Kingdom—or at the very least, infuse your stateside home with a sophisticated English flair.

Mary Beth Sheridan, Anthropologie’s chief home merchant, says: “House of Hackney provided us with classics and worked with us to reimagine other prints, creating only-at-Anthro exclusive layouts and colorways.” The pieces may be traditional, but with bold prints, sumptuous shades, and eccentric silhouettes (think a lampstand in the shape of a ripe manzana apple), they are hardly boring.

We’re coveting the Loddiges swivel chair, covered in House of Hackney’s beloved leopard print—a neutral as far as we’re concerned. Another few pieces that caught our eye? The hand-glazed stoneware cake stand with a peacock base, the jacquard throw blanket, and the richly patterned dishes, which look best mixed and matched.

So if you’re in pursuit of pieces to breathe a bit of life and whimsy into your space, you’ve arrived at your destination. Every element of the collection is as charismatic as it is exceptionally crafted. "At House of Hackney, we believe there are no rules when designing your home," House of Hackney co-founder Frieda Gormley adds. "We have always encouraged our customers to build homes where they can be themselves, and surround themselves with objects that bring them joy, and most importantly, grow with them, hopefully being passed down through generations to come.”

She makes a good point as all 215 pieces in the collection boast an undeniable heirloom quality that will age with grace. Even if you don’t need anything, swipe a few of your favorite pieces for your great-grandchildren to enjoy. House of Hackney’s timelessness will certainly transcend.
