The Solange & Frances Story - A Life Style For The Modern Home

 

At Solange & Frances, we believe that a home should tell a story—your story. It should reflect your values, your aesthetic, and your desire for connection in a world that’s becoming increasingly fast-paced and impersonal.

We are more than a home decor brand. We are a lifestyle movement grounded in simplicity, authenticity, and craftsmanship. Our mission is to create beautiful, functional pieces that are rooted in tradition yet feel right at home in a modern space.

Design That Embraces Nature and Nurtures Community

Our designs begin in the United States, but their soul is found in the lush landscapes and artisan villages of Indonesia. We intentionally choose natural materials like rattan, bamboo, reclaimed wood, and cotton—elements that bring warmth and texture to your home while remaining gentle on the earth.

Each item in our collection is lovingly handcrafted by skilled artisans—many of whom come from small, family-run workshops. These artisans carry forward techniques passed down through generations, blending age-old wisdom with modern design sensibilities. We’re proud to partner with them—not just as producers, but as creative collaborators.

When you bring a Solange & Frances piece into your space, you’re not just purchasing an object. You’re participating in a global story of tradition, craftsmanship, and dignity.

A Modern Home with Soul

We know how easy it is to get swept up in the convenience of mass production. But we believe there’s something sacred in slowing down, being intentional, and choosing things that truly resonate.

Our products are designed to help you create a home that feels calm, connected, and inspired—a sanctuary where you can pause, breathe, and be fully present. Whether it's a bamboo wind chime softly playing in your garden or a woven basket that brings order to your space, our pieces are invitations to live more meaningfully.

Ethics and Sustainability at Our Core

We believe that beauty should never come at the cost of people or the planet. That’s why we hold ourselves—and our partners—to high standards of ethical sourcing, fair labor, and environmental care.

We work only with artisans and cooperatives who are committed to:

  • Fair wages and safe working environments

  • Sustainable harvesting and material usage

  • Low-waste and plastic-free production methods wherever possible

By supporting these practices, your purchase helps preserve both cultural heritage and ecological balance.

Why We Do What We Do

At the heart of Solange & Frances is a desire to reconnect—with our homes, with the makers behind our belongings, and with values that truly matter. We want to offer you an alternative to throwaway culture—a chance to decorate with purpose and meaning.

We’re still learning, still growing, and always striving to do better. But every step forward feels more meaningful because of people like you—people who care, who choose thoughtfully, and who understand that small choices can make a big impact.

Thank You for Being Here

Thank you for supporting a small business with big dreams. Every order, every kind word, every shared story helps fuel our mission and support the artisans who make it possible.

Together, we’re building something lasting.
A lifestyle. A legacy.
Welcome to Solange & Frances.
