Pamela Anderson has officially launched her own furniture line – but it does not come cheap.
From tables carved from huge slabs of limestone to rustic-looking dining tables, much of the collection looks like it has been plucked from a display case at a museum.
Over the years, celebrities from Martha Stewart to Kelly Clarkson have started their own furniture ranges.
But with some items listed for thousands of dollars, Anderson’s new 40-piece line is far from accessible for the average household.
The collection – designed for both outdoor and indoor use – spans loungers, reading chairs, sofas, dining tables and even a dog bed.
Ironically, the Life of a Showgirl actress, 58, described the collection as ‘unpretentious, a little French, a little wild.’
‘It’s meant to be used, worn in, and lived with,’ she added.
Upon perusing the collection, shoppers might be surprised by just how expensive the items are.

Besides furniture, home décor, pots, planters, troughs and fountains are on sale
A one-of-one antique limestone table originating from Indonesia is priced at $3,495 while a longer version of the piece is on sale for just shy of $7,000.
If that wasn’t enough, a designer chestnut dining table from Turkey is on sale for $4,995 along with a handcrafted elm dining table imported from China for close to $3,000.
Perhaps even more shocking is Anderson’s rattan sofa, which is currently listed for $2,895. At Walmart, a similar sofa is on sale for $597.
Other items include a simple rattan armchair made in Indonesia that is priced at $1,295. By comparison, a rattan chair costs $109 at IKEA.
There are also coffee tables at $1,195, stools at $195 and lumbar pillows at $95.
The cheapest item available for purchase is a small French vintage ceramic pot, originally used for serving snail, priced at $10.
A pair of beeswax taper candles are also listed at $10, closely followed by a set of six pomegranate greeting cards that are priced at $25.
Anderson partnered with the lifestyle brand Olive Ateliers for the spring line, inspired by the ‘quiet rituals and a life well lived.’

Anderson described the collection as ‘unpretentious, a little French, a little wild’
Titled ‘The Sentimentalist,’ the collection was born from the actress’s memories of her grandmother’s farm along the Salish Sea in British Columbia.
It reflects a lifelong relationship with objects worn into familiarity and furniture that ‘supports the small rituals of an abundant life.’
‘I grew up by the sea,’ Anderson said. ‘I remember our tiny cabin on the dock, the wood turned silver from years of salt and weather.
‘I’ve always been drawn to things that age and soften; furniture that holds you at dawn, that grows more beautiful the more you live with it.
‘The best pieces become part of your rituals.’
