About Evergreen
Evergreen Bits & Bobs is a curated collection of vintage and antique objects, chosen for their quality, character, and lasting appeal. Each piece is found, collected, and passed on — selected with care for how it lives in a space and how it holds up over time.
With a background in retail and a long-standing appreciation for well-made things, the focus here is on material integrity, thoughtful design, and the small details that signal craftsmanship. From jewelry and tabletop to decorative objects and pieces for the desk, the collection is intentionally varied but consistently considered.
Many of the items come from private homes and estates, alongside a growing consignment offering. Pieces are chosen not for trend, but for their ability to layer easily into everyday life — to be used, worn, and returned to again and again.
The guiding philosophy is simple: buy what you love, and trust the details.
About the Owner
Evergreen Bits & Bobs is founded by Valerie Beman Kyos, a Portland-based retailer and curator with a long-standing presence in the local community. Known for a discerning eye and a thoughtful approach to sourcing, her work has always centered on quality, detail, and the experience of living with well-chosen objects.
Drawing on years of experience in retail and design, the collection reflects a personal perspective — one that values craftsmanship, authenticity, and pieces that quietly endure. Each item is selected not only for what it is, but for how it feels to use, wear, and keep over time.
