Bright Chair Company: Elana bench

First to recommend

Description

This channeled upholstered bench with octagonal supports by Douglas Levine, chief designer of the Bright Chair Company, is part of a collection of “deep, low, sexy” furnishings (his words) with the “loungey, slouchy” appeal of early 1970s furniture designs. Channels are 11 inches wide, and the designer, having given much thought to this measurement, would prefer custom orders observe that increment. Trade only. (via Elements of Living)

George Smith: Brewster chaise

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

They do, of course, still make them like they used to--boar bristle stuffing, cotton batting and all. The exacting standards of George Smith, among the premiere neo-classical cabinetmakers, are upheld in this sinuous, tufted chaise from his namesake company. Available in a variety of fabrics.

Lesley Anton: Totem Floor lamp

First to recommend

Description

Los Angeles ceramic artist Lesley Anton enriches her quiet clay colors with organic elements. The ribbed ceramic upright of this floor lamp somehow seems oddly familiar and soothing, like a stack of century-old milk bottles. Shown in cream crackle glaze with dark walnut alderwood accents. Trade only. (via Elements of Living)

Maine Cottage: What a Dish quilt

First to recommend

Description

Sarita Handa, the New Delhi-based manufacturer of private label bedding, has wisely introduced seven vibrant, kinetic quilt designs by the sophisticated American textile artist Denyse Schmidt. While still hand-sewn, each piece in the new line costs considerably less than her previous limited edition work. The wheeling disks of What a Dish begin as bias-cut fabric strips (solids, stripes and plaids) sewn into circles, then appliquéd concentrically onto solid ground. In two colorways, ecru or Dutch Masters red. Coordinating shams are available. (via Elements of Living)

Chine Collection tiles

First to recommend

Description

The Chine Collection by artists Claude Martin and Donna Suzenski is built around curious patterns acid-etched into Botticino marble, Durango travertine and Antique Gold limestone. The captivating diminutive designs are derived from fabrics and ceramic potters’s marks used in China between the twelfth and sixteenth centuries. The color of your choice is hand-applied--and permanently absorbed--into the stone. (via Elements of Living)

Ann Sacks: Ring Toss mosaic

First to recommend

Description

On a white stone ground, hand-hewn mosaic rings of green and blue stones rise like so many soda bubbles. Ann Sacks’s effervescent design may be adjusted in size, color and quality of finish in a palette as limitless as Mother Nature provides in the form of granite, limestone and marble.

Jeup Furniture: Ripora Chair

First to recommend

Description

Now that Joseph Jeup owns some CNC (computerized numerically controlled) machines, he can think increasingly about making more of his sculptural furniture designs. Freed from all that hand-hewing, this master of veneers may now focus his attention even more closely on hand-wrought finishes. Successful mass-produced items must widely suit, and the low-slung angle and open back to the Riparo chair have been carefully engineered for the comfort of
tall and small alike. In two wood species--Santos Rosewood and Walnut--and twelve finishes. Trade only. (via Elements of Living)

Ralph Pucci: Robert Bristow tables

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

This low, stout, marble-topped table, good to gang with others, fine to go it alone, stands on an open-side box of unstained maple and walnut. It is the brainchild of Robert Bristow, perhaps not coincidentally a former assistant to architect Paul Rudolph, the originator of Neo-Brutalism. Topped with a crisp block of white or black Danby marble. (via Elements of Living)

Berhardt Design: Edge Chair

First to recommend

Description

The forward-thinkers at Bernhardt Design Press are smart enough to look out behind. Thus was born their Art Center College of Design Collection, crafted by students from the renowned Los Angeles art school. The Edge chair by industrial-design student Justin Porcano is all cushioned angles: upholstered leather or fabric cushions atop a wide, slant-legged, solid walnut shell. Back and seat cushions extend slightly past the edge of the frame (particularly kind to the back of the knee), perhaps the detail for which the chair is named. May you find one in the next waiting room. Also in white or sky blue. (via Elements of Living)
