It's The Artisan Touch

At CG Hunter, our ethos has always been grounded in craftsmanship. From the intricacies of handwoven textures to the artistry of hand-painted finishes, our collections are created with the thoughtful intention of preserving traditional techniques while honoring modern style. It’s precisely this dedication to quality, authenticity, and artistry that led us to our latest chapter:  CG Hunter launching on Etsy.

As a platform celebrated for its community of makers, artisans, and design visionaries, Etsy is a natural fit for CG Hunter. It is not just a marketplace; it’s a global destination for those who value detail, individuality, and the kind of beauty that only comes from the human touch.

Handcrafted, Curated, and Designed with Meaning

We believe every item in your home should tell a story. That story often starts not just with design, but with the hands that shape it. Our Square Braided Jute Ottoman Pouf is a perfect example — hand-braided by skilled artisans using natural jute, each pouf has subtle variations that make it one-of-a-kind. Sturdy yet stylish, it layers warmth and texture into any room.

Similarly, our Natural Sisal & Wool Diamond Loop Rug reflects our commitment to sustainability and tactile beauty. Created with a careful blend of sisal and wool, this piece delivers both softness underfoot and durability — ideal for high-traffic living areas or serene bedroom settings.

Why Etsy?

Why now, and why Etsy? Quite simply, it's a platform that aligns with our values. In House Beautiful’s article, “9 Things Designers ALWAYS Buy On Etsy”, editors explain that “designers know that Etsy is the go-to for character-rich items.” Our presence on Etsy lets us connect with those seeking thoughtful, heirloom-quality decor — not just mass-produced pieces. Our stunning Natural Wood Accent Table perfectly fits the bill.

In “8 Tips for Shopping for Home Decor on Etsy”, Joanna Hawley notes the value of Etsy as a platform for discovering handcrafted, small-batch goods that feel intentional. “It’s easy to find handmade items with a story,” she writes — a statement that beautifully reflects what CG Hunter stands for.

Our Artisan Touch

Every CG Hunter item begins with a vision and is brought to life by artisans in small communities around the world. As detailed in our behind-the-scenes journal, “The Handcrafted Touch”, our partners work with sustainable materials, traditional methods, and modern design principles to produce pieces that feel elevated, functional, and full of soul.

The 10.6" Natural Terracotta Vase is just one example. Hand-shaped and finished in a warm, matte terracotta, it exudes understated elegance and echoes the centuries-old art of clay craftsmanship. Whether styled with dried branches or standing solo, it brings grounding beauty to shelves, consoles, and tabletops.

Our artisans are also behind our best-in-class greenery. The 7.5' Faux Potted Olive Tree is celebrated not only for its height and realism, but also for its craftsmanship. In House Beautiful’s article, “Hot Take: Are Fake Plants Actually Really Cool?”, faux botanicals are getting their long-overdue design credit. “Designers are embracing faux plants for their longevity and their elevated styling capabilities,” it explains — a trend we’ve championed long before it hit the mainstream.

Handcrafted Decor Is the Trend to Watch

Handcrafted decor isn’t just timeless — it’s trending. As highlighted in our 2025 Top 10 Decor Trends, artisan-made pieces are experiencing a powerful resurgence as consumers increasingly prioritize authenticity, sustainability, and soul over mass production. This shift is echoed in Architects.Zone, which describes handmade decor as part of “the return of craftsmanship,” and Satguru’s notes that, “...handmade home decor items are gaining popularity because they offer more than aesthetics — they reflect culture, heritage, and human connection.” For CG Hunter, this trend affirms what we’ve always believed: that handmade items, whether woven, carved, or painted, bring meaning into the modern home. Our presence on Etsy aligns perfectly with this growing movement toward intentional, story-driven design.

Design that Endures

When you purchase a CG Hunter piece on Etsy, you’re not just adding decor to your home. You’re investing in thoughtful design. Each product has passed through multiple hands — from concept to creation — ensuring the kind of care and attention you simply can’t find in mass-market products.

This aligns closely with what we shared in our Designer Journal entry, “Behind the Scenes at CG Hunter”. Our handmade processes are not shortcuts; they are our pride. Whether it’s the hand-braided finish of a pouf or the subtle brushstroke on a terracotta vase, it’s the detail that defines us.

Creating a Home with Character

One of the beautiful things about Etsy is the type of buyer it attracts — people who want more from their homes. They’re curating, not just decorating. They understand that a handmade item brings warmth, intention, and narrative into a space. These are the people we’ve always wanted to reach.

Our presence on Etsy allows us to showcase pieces that lean into both form and function — the natural, the sculptural, the bold, and the understated. These aren’t seasonal trends; they’re enduring choices that layer into your life over time.

Tips for Styling Our Etsy Favorites

Layering Texture: Place the Square Braided Jute Pouf near a reading nook or beside a low-slung chair to add depth and dimension. It’s both seating and sculpture.

Natural Accents: Use the Natural Terracotta Vase to showcase dried florals or seasonal greenery. Its earthy palette plays beautifully against neutrals and deep tones alike.

Elevated Greenery: Our Faux Olive Tree is perfect for corners that need height or softness. Style it in an entryway, living room, or dining nook for a Mediterranean-inspired feel.

Underfoot Comfort: The Natural Sisal & Wool Rug anchors any space with quiet confidence. Use it under a dining table or to define an open-plan area.
