Metropolitan Decor Essentials

Metropolitan Decor Essentials: our own label of practical pieces for finishing a room, from serveware and bar tools to trays, frames and bar carts.

Every piece is named for a plant and chosen for how it works day to day. Filter by type to find a tray for an ottoman, an ice bucket for a bar cart or frames for a console.

Why we made our own label

After curating interiors for our customers since 2009, we kept being asked for the finishing pieces: the tray for the ottoman, the ice bucket for the bar cart, the frames for the console. Essentials gathers those pieces in one place, chosen for size, material and how they work in daily use, so a scheme can be finished without hunting across a dozen stores.

Planning a scheme with Essentials

Group pieces by material and function: a marble tray, salt cellar and cheese board for a kitchen island; a leather magazine basket, frames and a desk box for a study; an acrylic game set and coasters for a media room. Each product page lists exact dimensions in inches and centimetres, plus where the piece works best.

Frequently asked questions

What is Metropolitan Decor Essentials?

It is our own label: serveware, bar tools, trays, boxes, frames, pillows, office accessories and bar carts chosen by the MetropolitanDecor team for everyday use at home and in hospitality spaces.

Why are the pieces named after plants?

Every Essentials piece carries a botanical name, so pieces from the same family are easy to spot and pair across a room.

How fast do Essentials pieces ship?

In-stock pieces ship within 3–5 business days. If a piece is being restocked, you can still order it and we will confirm your ship date by email.

Can I order multiples for a hotel, restaurant or office?

Yes. Trade account holders get project pricing and help planning quantities across rooms, tables or suites.

How do I pick pieces that work together?

Start with the material: marble and resin serveware sit well together on a buffet, leather and horn accessories suit a study or library, and acrylic games and trays work in a bright, modern lounge. Use the filters by type and material to narrow it down.

What is your returns policy?

All sales are final, so check the dimensions on each page before ordering. Report any shipping damage within 48 hours of delivery.
