Our Story

At Friend of Jane, we’re your well-traveled friend with a knack for finding charming English antiques. With access to England’s auction houses, antique dealers and trusted connections, we handpick and import pieces we feel you’ll be delighted to have in your home. Each piece is rich with history ready to be a featured piece of decor or a cherished object of family lore. Our mission is to curate timeless treasures worthy of carrying on their legacy in your home.
Friend of Jane is run by two friends, Kate Woods (London, UK) and Jenna Teti (New London, NH US). We met over a decade ago in Jersey City, NJ where a lasting friendship began.
Kate sources our goods from auctions and antique shops in the UK where she lives full time and Jenna handles importing and sales in the US out of Friend of Jane headquarters in New Hampshire
On an antiquing outing, a woman named “Jane” was referenced throughout many of the booths. The elusive “Jane” (who had exquisite taste) became the subject of our own antiquing lore and from that, “Friend of Jane” was born.
Favorite Antiques:
Kate - Currently, pink Sunderland ceramics (though she admits this changes on a weekly basis)
Jenna - Oddly specific Victorian tableware and Staffordshire Dogs
