A living collection of the American story.

Founded by collector and curator Alissa Taylor, Myrtle Bowie gathers heirloom-quality pieces from across the country, each with a history as rich as its craftsmanship. From high-style mid-century modern to humble folk art, every object is chosen for its soul, restored with meticulous care, and offered with complete transparency about its origins.

Alissa believes a home should be well-collected, not newly manufactured. She travels to private collections, roadside barns, and hidden estate sales to uncover enduring works of design. These pieces embody the spirit of their time and the vision of their makers, offering authenticity and character that new objects cannot replicate.
