Who We Are
We are DEN— a design destination tucked just off Fountain and Normandie in East Hollywood. For over a decade, DEN has quietly built a reputation as Los Angeles’s premier source for expertly curated 20th-century vintage furniture and artful home adornments. Founded and run by husband-and-wife team Jason and Emily Potter, our showroom is an unpretentious, elegant space filled with rare pieces gathered from Southern California—and everywhere else their journeys have taken them.
Every item you see at DEN has a story—and so do we.
DEN began as a weekend pop-up—an early passion project fueled by a shared eye for design and a deep love of the hunt. Before the showroom, before the kids, Jason and Emily were restoring secondhand treasures in their Long Beach apartment. What began as a side hustle became a calling. With time, persistence, and a growing online presence, DEN became Jason’s full-time work in 2013.
Years later, DEN is now a trusted source for one-of-a-kind, high-end vintage pieces—each one thoughtfully restored and ready for a new life.
We believe in the soul of vintage.
In timeless craftsmanship.
In objects made to last.
The construction and beauty of mid-century design—its clean lines, honest materials, and enduring form—is unmatched in today’s fast furniture landscape. These pieces were made when sustainability was second nature, and quality was the standard, not the exception.
At DEN, we don’t just curate. We preserve legacies. When you bring a piece home, you're participating in its story—and ensuring it continues.
Every item at DEN is hand-selected by Jason, then lovingly refurbished by our skilled in-house team. From re-roping original Walter Lamb patio furniture to custom reupholstery, we bring worn pieces back to life—without compromising their character.
Whether it’s a sculptural chair, a patinated sideboard, or a statement light fixture, we focus on quality, longevity, and thoughtful design. Each object is revived with precision and purpose.
Why Vintage?
Because the best things don’t come off an assembly line.
Because sustainability should look good and feel good.
Because true craftsmanship is worth preserving.
Vintage furniture offers something new furniture can’t: history. With strong bones and beautiful lines, these pieces adapt beautifully to customization—letting your personal style shine through while honoring the integrity of the original design.
Visiting DEN
Our East Hollywood showroom is by appointment only, but our online store is open around the clock, with new arrivals added weekly. We ship globally and love helping clients track down specific pieces. If you’re looking for something rare, reach out—we might already be on the hunt.
Each item is a guest here, waiting to begin its next chapter.
