If money were no object, how would you furnish your home? Chances are we won’t all win the lottery, which is why scouring the internet for solid dupes, replicas, or reproductions gives us the opportunity to showcase a luxury style for less. These may cost fewer dollars than the originals, but according to some of our favorite West Coast designers, their top picks are far from “cheap.”
“At the end of the day, a good dupe isn’t about copying, it’s about curating pieces that bring the same emotion, balance, and texture to a space without the premium markup—smart design with style integrity,” says Vyanca Soto of Market Studio Interiors.
Below, Soto and three other interior experts recommend the lookalikes you should add to your cart ASAP.
Luxury Item: Vladimir Kagan ‘Serpentine’ Sofa ($34,500)
Look for Less: Anthropologie Grace Serpentine Two-Piece Sectional ($3,898)
“The pieces I feel that should be duped are the most interesting or the unusual ones in a space. Vladimir Kagan’s mid-century modern curved Serpentine sofa remains as stylish and influential today as ever, with its distinctive design still widely replicated and very much in vogue. Anthropologie offers a beautiful version that captures the same luxurious, statement-making feel.” —Lindsay Olson, principal and founder of Lulu Designs
Luxury Item: RH Cloud Modular 6-Piece U-Chaise Sectional (Starting at $10,360)
Look for Less: Costco Sereen 6-Piece Fabric Sectional ($2,400)
A sectional is one of your biggest investments, and Soto has come up with a few alternatives to “achieve a high-end, collected look without compromising style or quality.” Her go-to? This six-piece sectional from Costco.
Luxury Item: Roman and Williams Guild Oscar (Starting at $6,400)
Look for Less: LightPatternShop Mid-Century Modern Handmade Pendant ($999)
“You don’t always need to spend a fortune to get beautiful pieces that spark conversation. Etsy is one of my go-to resources for this—especially when it comes to decorative lighting. To me, lighting is like the jewelry of a home—it has the power to completely elevate a space. One of my favorite collections is the Oscar line from Roman and Williams Guild. I found an amazing pendant dupe on Etsy that’s even customizable.” —Liad Schwartz of Interiors with Liad
Luxury Item: Zellige Tile ($18.85 per square foot)
Look for Less: Bedrosians Celine Matte Porcelain Tile ($8.19 per square foot)
“I used these in my recent bathroom makeover, and they’re a fantastic budget-friendly alternative to traditional Zellige tiles, which can get pretty pricey. They’re a bit thinner, which actually made them easier to install, but they still deliver that same handcrafted, textured look. These are worth considering if you’re going for that Zellige vibe without the high-end cost.” —Scott
Luxury Item: FLOS IC Floor Lamp ($965)
Look for Less: West Elm Sphere & Stem 2-Light Floor Lamp ($299)
Italian company FLOS makes a standout, spendy floor lamp, and Soto has a smart swap for the art deco piece: West Elm’s best-selling floor lamp has the same glass globes.
Luxury Item: Pierre Jeanneret Chair (Starting at $1,928)
Look for Less: Jeanneret Lounge Chair with Arms from France & Son ($900)
The iconic midcentury modern chair costs anywhere from $2,000 to $97,000 on 1stDibs, but Soto says can get a similar style thanks to France & Son’s reproduction. Psst—it’s currently on sale, too!
Luxury Item: Apparatus Talisman 2 Sconce (Starting at $4,600)
Look for Less: GlassBlownStudio Brass Finish Sconce Lighting (Starting at $350)
“I also love Apparatus—some of their fixtures are so special and unique. With a few finds on Etsy, you can recreate that same sculptural, high-end look.” —Schwartz
Luxury Item: 18th Century Belgian Tapestry (Prices vary)
Look for Less: Lone Fox x Joon Loloi Hollyhock Printed Tapestry Rug ($299)
“When I designed this rug for my collection with Joon Loloi, I scanned an original 18th century tapestry that I own to recreate it in a more accessible, budget-friendly way. The result is a stunning, detailed piece that works beautifully as a rug or a statement wall hanging.” —Scott
Luxury Item: RH Lattice Glass Lighting Collection (Starting at $770)
Look for Less: Elegant Furniture & Lighting Sydney Collection (Starting at $190)
Soto says if you love the unique chandelier collection from RH, which runs anywhere from $770 to $19,330, you can match the vibe with New York-based company Elegant’s Sydney series. Starting at $190, you can mimic the tiered fixtures without spending up to five figures.
Luxury Item: Rose Uniacke Plaster Cone Hanging Light (Starting at $3,016)
Look for Less: TheLampWorkshopStore 15-Inch Plaster Cone Pendant Shade ($819)
“Plaster has been having a moment. Rose Uniacke’s plaster pendants are a favorite of mine—and I found a stunning Etsy alternative.” —Schwartz
