Collection: Karin Belfiglio

For over 20 years, Karin Belfiglio has been a familiar presence at Zurich’s Bürkliplatz flea market, where she is known for her discerning eye for form, materials, colour, art, and design.

Her curated selection brings together vintage objects from different eras, including small furniture, glass and ceramics, costume jewellery, and accessories. Alongside beautiful and refined pieces, she is drawn to the unexpected and unusual — objects with character, depth, and a story to tell.

Each piece is personally selected and carefully curated. Nothing is chosen by chance; Karin looks for that particular quality that makes an object memorable, whether it is its originality, its craftsmanship, its visual presence, or simply the ability to bring joy and spark curiosity.

Her approach to vintage is defined by style with depth and originality, favouring pieces that can remain meaningful beyond passing trends.

At House of Nomad Stories, her selection offers a collection of singular objects chosen for their personality, history, and unmistakable sense of character.
