Our Story

Our name, BOBO, is derived from the French term “bourgeois bohemian.”

 

We believe that wonder can’t be manufactured; it must be discovered. 

 

That’s why we’ve traveled to more than 50 countries in search of one-of-a-kind heritage pieces for our ever-evolving collection of décor, art, mirrors, accents, lighting and textiles. 

 

Scouring the world and styles from mid-century to Art Deco and from modern to vintage, we uncover and reimagine timeless designs. Each of our character-filled pieces is directly inspired by antiques, then meticulously re-crafted to complement a modern aesthetic. 

 

Produced by craftspeople in factories in India, Poland, Belgium, the Philippines, Vietnam and Indonesia, each of our decorative accessories maintains an artisan feel and the allure of “perfect imperfections.” BOBO maintains a warehouse in Brussels, and our US headquarters is in Atlanta. 

 

The past inspires the present. Come explore with us as we rediscover hidden treasures once lost in the modern age. 


“The Re-Imaginist” 

 

Mark Sage, founder of BOBO and avid collector of intriguing objects, is called “The Re-Imaginist.” 

 

Mark’s inspiring nickname is a nod to his extraordinary talent for discovering one-of-a-kind pieces in centuries-old French churches, out-of-the-way Italian kitchens, village shops in Sweeden or vintage warehouses in ancient cities.  

 

He has spent the last 20-plus years discovering antiques around the world and reimagining them with a new story. 
Mark continues to grow BOBO's cabinet of curiosities by adding new stories to every space.
