Shabby Chic, the lifestyle brand founded 20 years ago by Rachel Ashwell is back with a new line of furniture. The Guildmaster Shabby Chic Collection continues the casual soft vintage style of the original pieces that become popular with stars like Pamela Anderson and had millions looking for charmingly aged antiques to create a similar look.

The new designs are based on actual antique and vintage designs that Ashwell found while doing her own antiques digging at places like the famous Brimfield antique shows and other flea markets. The pieces are being made by Guildmaster and come in four basic finishes-- light gray, white, darker gray and simple white with several finishes that offer the look of a delicately aged patina. Home Accents Today has a couple images of the new pieces, tables, chairs and cupboards in classic designs that seem very in tune with the Shabby Chic aesthetic.
