What is primitive home décor?

Primitive décor includes anything that is handcrafted in a simple fashion, reminiscent of the most basic earliest creations of humankind. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary ‘primitive’ as “belonging to or characteristic of an early stage of development”. In terms of furniture and home décor, this means basic shapes and unvarnished finishes, done purposefully to give a primitive feel.

Even though it might sound like all primitive decorating styles are ugly, nothing could be further from the truth. Most primitive styled items have a lovely sense of style that is quite unlike anything else. Typically, primitive décor items have an almost unfinished look about them.
