ABOUT Shades Of Pale

We specialise in French antiques, homewares, interiors, architectural & garden pieces. We also provide a home decorating and interior design service. Born and raised in Liverpool, in the United Kingdom, Gaynor Groome moved to Australia 30 years ago. Gaynor’s passion for collecting unique antique pieces and restoring them was well recognized by her close friends and family. Gaynor started out by painting her pieces from home whilst she brought up her two girls Olivia and Isabella. During this time she supplied to well known shops in and around Sydney. She quickly developed a large clientele which prompted the expansion of her business. Finally in August 2006, Gaynor and her partner Mark opened Shades of Pale. Gaynor’s success could immediately be seen in the high amount of interest and popularity of the store. This quickly resulted in the need for her to start traveling back and forward to France collecting those beautiful pieces that make Shades of Pale what it is today.
