About Us
Diamonds & Rust was founded by Janelle Bannon in 2010.
At Diamonds & Rust, we believe every piece tells a story—a tangible representation of the human experience. We take pride in sourcing our products from all corners of New England, ensuring each item carries a rich history and unique character. From antique dressers to repurposed factory carts, every piece in our collection is meticulously selected for its quality, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal.
Our furniture draws inspiration from the charm of 1930s coastal cottages, incorporating distinctive design elements that evoke a relaxed seaside vibe. Painted wood in soft shades of blue, reminiscent of the ocean and sky, is a signature feature, alongside rustic yet refined shapes, subtle curves, and simple lines. These timeless designs bring a sense of serenity and charm to any space.
As advocates for sustainability and ethical consumerism, we are passionate about preserving environmental resources by giving new life to old objects. Each item is carefully cleaned and restored by hand, honoring its journey while ensuring it meets our high standards for quality and durability.
With years of experience in the industry, we’ve built strong relationships with makers and artisans who share our passion for vintage and nature-inspired design. Together, we celebrate the beauty of imperfection, the power of craftsmanship, and the enduring value of sustainability—helping you bring pieces with meaning and history into your life.
