The Wren Home

Welcome to The Wren

Our founder, Lori Bate, travels across continents to find extraordinary, one-of-a-kind treasures that showcase generations of artisanal expertise—pieces you won’t find anywhere else. Bridging timeless traditions with modern homes, our curated collection empowers global artisans while celebrating quality, heritage, and sustainability.

Our digital magazine, The Nest, invites readers to explore the stories behind our artisans, their craft, and the cultural heritage they preserve. Together, we’re creating a movement to cherish tomorrow’s heirlooms.

In a world that moves too quickly, we invite you to pause for a moment and appreciate the beauty of mindful consumption. Because true luxury isn’t measured in excess—it’s measured in impact, intention, and the quiet confidence of knowing your choices matter, especially when they’re as distinctive as the pieces we source.

Italian Inspiration

"Lori had me at Fortuny..."

When I first met Lori, there was one thing we both had in common. It was our love of the finest Fortuny fabrics and appreciation for Italian textiles. As a designer, my goal is to not only bring my clients' spaces to life, but to source one-of-a-kind pieces that tell a story, carry heritage, and elevate the everyday into something extraordinary.
