Our History & Sourcing
Kudzu Archives is a division of Kudzu Antiques + Modern – sourcing authentic, hand-selected European antiques and mid-century items for over four decades.
Decades of Respected Quality
Atlanta’s Best Since 1979
Kudzu Antiques + Modern has been recognized as “Atlanta’s Best” by local publications, interior design associations, and generations of loyal customers. Founded in 1979, our company has grown from a humble antique center into one of the oldest, largest, and most respected direct importers in the Southeast.
Through Kudzu Archives, we carry on this multi-decade tradition. We focus on offering premium-quality antiques, mid-century modern designs, and imported vintage curiosities at prices that make high-end design accessible to a wide audience.
UNIQUE FINDS FROM EUROPE
Hand-Selected Sourcing
We personally travel to the heart of Europe to source every individual item that enters our collection.
Unlike importers who buy in bulk from catalogs or wholesalers, our buyers travel extensively across the countryside of England, France, Denmark, and Belgium. We walk the fields of outdoor flea markets, build relationships with small village dealers, and attend estate clearances to find pieces with history and character.
By hand-selecting each antique item—ranging from the 1600s to the 1960s—we ensure that every dresser, mirror, lighting fixture, and chair meets our standards of build quality, authenticity, and design integrity, while keeping prices accessible.
Fresh off the Ship
Direct Ocean Container Imports
Our direct importing model allows us to cut out middlemen and offer the best prices in Atlanta.
Once a buying trip concludes, we pack custom shipping containers with our handpicked items. These containers make the ocean voyage directly to our warehouse facilities. By managing our own logistics, packing, shipping, and customs, we keep overhead low.
When a container docks, it is unloaded directly at our showroom. This creates a high-turnover inventory where new arrivals appear on the showroom floor weekly. Check back often, as the most unique items tend to find homes very quickly!
