Lanterns with Sketch42

NYC Artist and Writer Nicole Cohen of sketch42 was nice enough 
to feature two of our lights in her blog. The Stephano Chandelier 
and the Grande Cuba de Marco Lantern were 2 of Nicole's finds 
while she was searching for options for an interior design client.


These are two of the many new lights that we are carrying.
Nicole chose two very nice options. Her client really can't go wrong 
with either the rustic and simple, but elegant Stephano in a 
natural rust finish, or the formidable Cubo de Marco Chandelier 
which is finished in Newport Silver and comes in at almost 3 feet tall!

Nicole and her ridiculously awesome apartment in Manhattan 
were also recently featured in an 18 page spread ( see page 100
in the great on-line magazine Rue.


Congratulations and thank you Nicole Cohen!

Featured in the Washington Post!

Although it may not be Watergate, we're still excited to see our popular 
Bubbles Glass Chandelier in the famous Washington Post!
Clicking on No. 15 in the "After" graphic brings up our
fabulous blown glass chandelier!  



The Bubbles Glass Light adds an incredible burst of energy and style
to space. Dozens of handblown glass "bubbles" threaded onto chrome rods
 and all projecting outward from a chrome sphere make this a unique 
and exciting light fixture.


Popular as either a Chandelier or a Ceiling Fixture!



     We love this modern light fixture for combining a great piece of lighting
with the beauty of a sculpted work of art and we're so grateful to designer
Kelly Porter of Porter House Designs for incorporating 
the Bubbles Glass Chandelier into her design. Thanks Kelly!

The Classic Beni Ourain Rug . . . and then some.

We are so excited to have just stocked some gorgeous handmade rugs from Turkey. Styled after the classic Beni Ourain rug from the Middle Atlas mountains in Morocco, these 100% wool rugs are very unusual and very special.


The weave creates a very soft rug. You may never want to put your shoes on again!



Ancient Beni Ouarain breed of sheep grazing.The Beni Ouarain tribes did not use their original carpets as floor covers, but rather as beds and bedding.





Here, Jonathan Adler uses a Beni at the Parker Palm Springs.










Right now, we have 2 different Beni-style rugs in-stock. Both are handmade in Turkey, and are 100% wool. The hexagon shaped pattern (pictured above), 
and the diamond shape patterned rugs.


Check out more pictures of these great rugs on our website!
