WANTED: an excuse to throw a dinner party to complete this room!
There are several pieces I’d love to get for our dining room (new table; Philippe Starck Ghost chairs; Missoni placemats), but for now, I’m in need of a pair of sconces to flank the mirror, and add some extra illumination plus a little drama to the dark gray walls. Any ideas? I was thinking something like this crystal waterfall sconce from Shades of Light:
Of course I’d love this Jonathan Adler sconce, but alas, we have the pendant version already:
I think either matches the other pieces in the room, such as the pendant lamp from West Elm, the Pottery Barn beveled mirror, the Nate Berkus ikat bowl, the mirrored tray from Z Gallerie, and the 1970’s gold Italian ice bucket from Etsy…
…and of course the absolutely gorgeous Japanese handpainted gold-rimmed bone china handed down to me by my grandparents, that I’m absolutely thrilled to have:
And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention these quite groovy vintage napkins from Spain, also picked up on Etsy:
So won’t you be our guest? Seems like these days we can only finish projects with a deadline in place. Have your people call my people. Let’s do this.
…xoxo
Update: this room has been completed (sans sconces)! See my easy solution here.
Ooooh I’m really loving that bowl. When can I come over? :-)
what about global views fortune teller sconces? shameless self promotion – but I have some new ones for sale on ebay right now.
Really enjoy your pictures!
Hi! This room came out so beautiful. I would really love to know the name of the paint color if possible. I think it’s the color I’m looking for for my bedroom.. I love your style!
Love the mirror!! Can you please tell me where I can find it? Many thanks.
Hi Suzanne, it was from Pottery Barn but years ago….I just looked and they still carry it!
