“Why else are we here if not to live with unreasonable passion for things”
Trouvé
Stacey
Growing up in Chicago, Stacey has been drawn to vintage ever since she was a little girl - taking her mum’s old purses, re-doing a dress, cropping an old pair of jeans. Later on her very first apartment was filled with hand-me-down furniture from her parents. She would touch them up to make them more interesting and aligned with her style.
Having lived in many different cities in Europe, moving to Switzerland years ago, Stacey was looking for pieces for her new apartment. But within the market in Switzerland she never seemed to find pieces that truly reflected her personality, there was just never that wide of an offering.
So she decided to do something she was already well familiar with - sourcing unique items at vintage markets and going on a hunt for that one-of-a-kind piece during her travels!
Fast-forward to today, her mind and studio just outside of Lausanne are buzzing with creative ideas and special boutique pieces.
Thus, Trouvé was created by Stacey with so much love and one main purpose - to share her finds with others. What started off as a small idea and hobby quickly developed into a complete lifestyle brand. The vision of Trouvé is inspired by the need for adventure and a love for life out of the ordinary…
Why settle for an average piece like everyone else when you can have something original, a single piece that has no double? Trouvé is here to inspire others to curate a home and a life filled with beautiful stories. Pieces which will implore you to dream beyond & discover, to live & create memories.
Values
Individuality.
A sense of individuality - our greatest freedom is the freedom to express ourselves. Individuality is at the core of Trouvé , anything and everything from rusty to imperfect can be loved because it’s natural and that makes it real.
Value.
Trouvé wants to bring value to the Swiss marketplace by introducing attainable luxuries; beautiful and interesting things that do not have to be necessarily expensive to be valuable.
Beauty.
Stacey’s aim is to bring beautiful finds into people’s daily lives by telling her story and hearing theirs, bridging the gaps between fantasies, memories and reality.
Attention to detail.
Attention to detail of each piece, handmade or curated, is what makes the difference and is at the very core of Trouvé.
