Park Ave.

I'm on vacation and these lacquered-up beauties are heading north to a law office on Park Avenue. I love Manhattan and can't even say how relieved I am that they're going to a good home...

Enjoy!

Pink

My country upholsterer just delivered these...

pink linen + ebony wood + nickel nailheads
= a seating confection

Chills

It's about 100 degrees in CLT today, but this crazy beautiful room is making the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Love Love Love. Anyone know where it's from?

Wednesday Chair Deliciousness

These just arrived, fresh & fabulous in all their Windsor Smithiness. Without a doubt the most comfortable chairs in which I've sat. Nice tall backs to rest your head, thick smooshy cushions in feather & down. What's not to love?

Beach Bound

A pair of these amazing BRNO chairs just left for Southampton.
Enjoy, Melissa!

Chair Not-Quite-Pair Love

these make me crazy

Fabric Love

I'll soon be bringing a room-full of furniture into Post & Gray, inspired by a few euro-sized down pillows I just had made out of this amazing fabric, Dzhambul by Brunschwig & Fils.  A classic chippendale sofa will be wrapped in pale aqua velvet, 2 delicate 1940's armchairs will be covered in coral Libeco-Lagae linen {+ a few judiciously placed nickel nailheads}, and 2 low silvered bamboo tables will move about to hold drinks & The New York Times.

I can hardly sleep nights thinking about it.

Windsor Smith

I loved Windsor Smith's Riad in Seafoam as soon as I spotted it in House Beautiful ages ago, and I've been looking for the right piece to upholster ever since. Last week I finally found a suitable pair of chairs, so stay tuned. 

For now, here are a few more peeks at Windsor's style.

Help

These limon faux leather party girls need a new dress for the dance.

The only things I'm insisting on are ebony stained legs & nickel nail heads -- the rest is open for discussion. Linen? Leather? Ikat? Stripes? Send me your thoughts. Please.
