We are very excited for this special piece of artwork to arrive. Created by artist Don Carney in collaboration with his mom Carmella- Don creates the artwork and his mom does the stitch work. We love what they do and we completely fell for this rose. All of their pieces are framed in vintage frames from the artist's collection.
Some favorite things that are wonderful traveling pieces for the summer... Repettos + socks- the socks keep you the perfect amount of warm for chilly flights - and the Repettos are incredibly comfortable and cute! Not to mention that they are easy to slip on and off which comes in handy while traveling. The Fog Linen coat shown is absolutely wonderful. It is loose and comfortable with raglan sleeves and a slightly open closure at the neck. This is the same coat as in our last photo series- just in navy instead of natural. The linen has a nice weight with a great texture. It's one of our all time favorites and we were so happy they made it again for Spring and Summer.
Also shown is the John Derian Dromedary love seat in rose linen velvet... and a beautiful new pillow with a beautiful floral pattern inspired by antique chinese textiles. <3
Astier de Villatte ceramics are entirely made by hand. Each piece has character. One of the things we love so much about it is the combination of a hint of a rustic element with an overall refined sensibility. These ceramics are made of a black earthenware and finished with porcelain. They are wonderful as everyday dishes- mixing beautifully with handblown glassware and a mix of Fog Linen napkins... and they also look great with cut glassware and all white linens. We have such an appreciation for things that can be used in different ways- and that bring beauty to daily life.
Sharing with you a beautiful color. My mom brought me this flower from her hollyhock plant the other night when she came for dinner. She brought it because she knows this is my favorite color/color combination. The softest pink with a hint of yellow at the center- and then of course in a little blue dish. I love it so... and it still looks fresh and beautiful. Thank you Mom <3
<3 Sock heaven. We have a new batch of cotton socks from Bonne Maison in the most fantastic colors. We love wearing these with Repettos- pairing interesting colors together. These would make a wonderful Mother's Day gift :)
