Reveal Thyself!

Hellooo! I know I disappeared from here for a while. I haven't forgotten you, just desperately trying to come up for some air while I am drowning under work. Work/ Life balance you say? Sigh!

The sideboard above is a stained oak vintage piece from Alfred Hendrickx. 

Like it? I loved the idea of one of the doors being an abstract painting, but the wood stain reminded me of the cheap plywood vinyl kitchen cupboards that were popular in India not so long ago. Like it? Hate it? What gives?

I Like! You?

A rain forest scene in bas-relief porcelain tiles. The Marmouset Jungle cabinet by Jean Boggio. I love everything about the cabinet- the intricate work, the colour and do check out the brass monkey handle! Who thought porcelain relief could look this pretty eh?

A little OTT you think? A room center piece, I say!

Ever thought you would eat under a spotlight? Ever thought of buying discarded spotlights from a movie set and hanging it above your dining table? Think Ralph Lauren! These vintage light fixtures add just the right touch of drama to an otherwise simple/sober room, don't you think? Bring on some filmy drama!

I leave you with this image and a touch of red to bring in some Christmas cheer. At the SHP station here, to make up for a week of no posts, stay tuned for a slew of posts all this week and introductions to some wonderful new artists.
