In These Times

by
 

It seems like everyone is discounting these days—even those who rarely do. On the Thos. Moser Web site it says, “Our long-time customers know that we don’t have “sales”. However, during these unprecedented times….” Now the company is offering 10 percent off its most popular sellers (such as the New Gloucester rocker, now $1,595, and the Lolling chair, $2,600, and ottoman, $855, both shown above). Also look for up to 20 percent off on showroom samples and customer returns.

Sweet Dreams

I can’t wait to get over to Arelle Fine Linens to manhandle their new ultra-luxe sheets. Arelle says that Sferra Bros created the super-soft sheets and duvet covers after two years of research and development. Giza Egyptian cotton is said to be the finest in the world, previously only available for fine men’s shirts. The cotton is grown in the valley of the River Nile; it’s woven in Italy. Yum.

Tile, Topped

This new collection of tile-topped tables comes from Fran Brady, a furniture maker who is the force behind Madeline Fairchild Designs. The tables are handmade here in the U.S. from wood or iron bases—the tile comes from around the world.

From Russia, With Love

by

Perhaps it’s my family roots in Mother Russia tugging, but when I got an email from Gallery KH announcing an upcoming exhibit of the fantastical paintings of Soviet-born, France-based Roman Zaslonov, I was immediately compelled. Can you imagine having such a dramatic painting in your home? I guess I’m not alone in feeling this way: enthusiasts wait for years to acquire pieces of his work—which will be on display for the first time in the U.S. at KH from January 16 to March 7. By the way, the painting above, La Robe d’Architecte en Rouge, is priced at $97,000

Coffee Table Talk

by

We’ve written about Jan Janders in the past and we just found out that he will have an exclusive line of coffee tables (made from his trademark concrete) at Haute Living. It’s not easy to find a modern coffee table that also has some heft to it (the ones I see tend to be skinnier and geared toward small spaces). These two certainly fit the bill.

Last Minute Gift!

This cracks me up, and it would make for a great pop of color in any room. Don’t know how practical it is, but it’s definitely amusing. Price: $45 at Zella Brown.
