Edit 01 - Black Dot Shops

There is an early-mid 1800s butter dish from Black Dot Shops I still think about. Blue and white with little figures, trees, and structures that caught my eye and captured by heart like only vintage one-of-a-kind items can. That eye for detail, artistry, and quality is something we truly admire and we're so excited to welcome Shelby Kniazell as our very first EDIT! A bit about her and her husband's wildly charming and cool venture, Black Dot Shops.

Embark on a journey through the enchanting world of Black Dot Shops, a vintage haven meticulously crafted by husband and wife duo Shelby and Mikey Kniazeff. Established in 2020, this home decor shop was born out of a deep appreciation for interior design and thoughtfully curated treasures. What started as a personal journey to find unique pieces for their own home has blossomed into a thriving online platform. Join Shelby and Mikey on their latest adventure as they share their passion for second-hand marvels with the world.

Hi! Thank you so much for taking the time to select your nine from our collection. Can you tell us why you chose these works?

I am naturally drawn to artworks that embrace colour and a sense of whimsy. Each piece effortlessly captures attention in its own unique way, drawing me in with its charm. Our home serves as a gathering place for loved ones to relax and unwind, where fun is at the forefront. When dressing our space, we purposefully select art that reflects this vibrant energy, creating an atmosphere of enjoyment and delight.

What is your first or fondest art memory?

My first memory of art is from childhood, when my mom enrolled me in art lessons after school. It was a special time where I learned the fundamentals of sketching, watercolour painting, and oil pastels.
