Create your personal style with genuine antiques, original contemporary art and unique decor pieces
Welcome to Humble House gallery. We specialise in authentic oriental antique furniture, contemporary Australian art and original table lighting. Individually or in combination these pieces allow you to create a personalised style that is uniquely yours. A selection is available from our website but we would encourage you to visit our expansive, comfortable showroom to fully appreciate the options available.
Antiques
Antique Chinese furniture transcends mere decoration, offering a living connection to centuries of cultural heritage and exceptional craftsmanship. These pieces serve a functional purpose and also tell a rich story, bringing unique character, historical depth, and artistic sophistication to your living spaces. See the full range in our Canberra antique and art gallery.
Cabinets are functional and visually pleasing with designs ranging from simple to richly decorated.
Tables are often the centrepiece in a room. Traditionally they represent a fusion of cultural heritage and artistic design. Today they serve as focal points bridging historical and modern aesthetics.
Traditionally chairs reflected the social standing, wealth and cultural refinement of the owner. Today they are conversation starters adding life and style to a room.
Art
Contemporary art that resonates with personal experiences and values breathes life into living spaces, forging powerful emotional connections and offering a dynamic form of self-expression. Make a personal visit to see art by local, interstate and international artists. You will also appreciate how well classic and contemporary decor blend together.

“Our first visit to Humble House was in April 2006. We purchased a pair of bedside tables and have been hooked ever since. Nearly 10 years later and we now have a piece in nearly every room.
The pieces we have bring warmth and charm. They are beautiful, tactile, sturdy and functional with most in use every day. Unlike customary antiques they are timeless and complement our eclectic mix of belongings. Rather than dominating spaces the pieces meld into the environment and become a functional part of our home.”
“The cloud bench is truly perfect, just what I had hoped it would be. Looks as if it has always graced our sitting room as I felt it would.”
