Gallery Elder
“I like the word elder — it has the connotation of being wise and full of character,” says Tyler Brand, who opened his 1,200-square-foot gallery and boutique in Ottawa’s Westboro neighbourhood in the fall of 2022. After years working in retail (most recently at Mjölk in Toronto), Tyler decided to build something of his own. Having grown up in a converted 1880s schoolhouse just outside of Kitchener, Ont., he was instilled with an appreciation for historical pieces from a young age. Gallery Elder specializes in antique furniture, homewares and accessories, primarily from the 17th to 19th centuries.
