Get Low

We love the idea of a low stylish coffee table to play with proportions and create fresh perspective.

 So, naturally were very excited to spot this layout:

in Traditional Home. Initially, it was the coffee table that caught our eye and reminded us of one of our own favorite pieces:


We fell in love with this table because it seemed like something we would find at ABC Home in New York, the ultimate in amazing home furnishings,  (where they sell them for double or triple the price of ours...) But, we also think it's the perfect piece to mix in with various other elements and styles.


And we are always ready and willing to help if you need any assistance in creating your own space!

Crazy for Coral



Amelita and I have loved shells from the beginning.  So delicate in beautiful colors, they bring an elegant element of nature to any room. Whether placed on a coffee table as if to take the place of a sculpture, or added to book shelves as the small touches that really bring a room together, they stand like little treasures, reminders of places elsewhere and the beauty of the natural world.

We found one of our pieces of coral completely irresistible to buy and I think this cover from Elle Decor might be somewhat responsible...

I can't get this room out of my head. It's so beautiful and when you really look at it, there's not too much to it, each item just "packs a lot of punch" for lack of a better expression phrase. While the shells are prominently displayed, nothing is overpowered-- shells do not have to be beachy by any means. And conveniently enough, we have the majority of the items you'd need to create a similar space:
Basically the exact same coral sculpture as on the cover: 

I don't know how to describe the effect it has in a space, but it's really something. It has a captivating quality to it that in my opinion makes it all the more valuable. Simply, it's beautiful. 

We also have quite the variety of shells perfect for shelves:


And these are just plain cool:
$575

Then bring the look together with classic neutral staples and fun accessories:

$1,050

We love poufs too!
Only $109!

Despite the weather outside, feeling inspired? Come see us! Happy Saturday!
