About

COLECTA is a rare vintage furniture & collectible design gallery, based in the hinterland of Byron Bay, Australia.

Specialising in original pieces of design & considered restorations, sourced first-hand through travels across Brazil & Europe — building relationships on the ground over three decades.

Founded by Diana & Toby Crawford, COLECTA grew from a shared practice of collecting design into a small, hands-on gallery business.

Both come from a background in film & television — Diana as an award-winning short filmmaker & TV producer, Toby as a BBC writer-director, creative director & award-winning filmmaker in his own right.

Their instinct for storytelling has found a new home, with their passion for narrative & craft now shaping the curation & presentation of their design collections.

Our clients are collectors, design professionals & homeowners drawn to authentic materials and timeless design.

Many of our pieces & the homes they've gone on to furnish, have been featured in Vogue Living, Belle, The Local Project & Architectural Digest.

By collectors, for collectors.
