Classic Games Chess | Lacquered Poseidon
Because good taste is not accidental.
We do the looking, so you do not have to.
Every piece is selected for how it feels, how it wears and how it lives in the real world. Nothing overworked. Nothing forgettable. Housekeepers is for people who know what they like, trust their instincts and appreciate being shown something genuinely good.
Housekeepers lives inside a historic grain store on Harbour Street. It is a space filled with good light, good energy and very good things.
While we ship nationwide, our roots are firmly local. The shop floor shapes everything you see online, and the feeling carries through.
Housekeepers is led by Sally-Ann Donnelly, whose eye for design and instinct for what works has shaped the store from the beginning.
We buy for the bold, the brilliant and the quietly confident.
For people who enjoy dressing with intention, curating their spaces thoughtfully and choosing pieces that feel personal rather than predictable.
If you know what you like, trust your taste and appreciate being shown something genuinely good, Housekeepers is for you.
