I have to like it very much.

desk, it comes in white and black at an
affordable price. could be very good
for guest room!

It comes in walnut and white.


Paris writing table.
Faux leather with stainless legs.
This would be a stylish piece in any bedroom or living area.

Greek key tooling and leather top.

Another great piece in the living room or bedroom.


Very masculine desk from Tom Thoma Gallery;
making a good statement.

This Biedemeyer-style bears amboyna burl veneer with ebony pulls and inlay. The legs are solid mahogany, and the leather top is tooled with 22-carat gold.

"Spanish Delights" from Hermes

~: Beautiful Living :~
Let's have a cup of tea with Hermes


I love this collection from Hermes when it first introduced.
Yesterday I came across it again at Bergdorf Goodman,
and I am still very fond of it!
This collection, Balcons du Guadalquivir,
taken from the intricate ironworks from the
balconies of the Spanish City
Guadalquivir.
Strikingly chic!
The red pigment applied by hand in several layers to achieve,
and yet this is dishwasher and microwave safe!

Hermes stands for it quality and timelessness!

Elements oF Style - Hooded Chair


The porter's chair dates back to 16th century France.
These chairs were commonly used for protection from the draughts

when the gatekeeper of a well-to-do family would
would sit at the front
of the home and screen guests or visitors upon arrival.
................
These days, one can find porter's chair at flea market
or antique gallery; and you can use any kind of
materials to reupholster the chair.

Placing porter's chair at the foyer or sitting room
would create a dramatic statement.

And it is charming and intimate experience
when used in a dinning room.

Below image shows Kelly Wearstlerv used updated
porter's chairs at BG restaurant at Bergdorf Goodman.

Fun and full of energy, bold statement and whimsical!

Young and Stylish Russian Design

I came across this fun "Curl My Light"
from a Russian designer,
Dima Loginoff.
This design was awarded:
Second Prize of International Design Awards (IDA) competition
in Home Interior Products.

This light fixture is modern and young energy
and I like it creates shallow on the wall and ceiling.
It comes in table lamp and hanging lamp.
I love those colored one,
it introduces a shade of color
into the modern habitat.

The illumination may not be good for reading,

but definitely creates an ambiance,
and an interesting form for
a living space.
