Shut Up!!!

I recently used this bed in a job of mine.
When we first viewed it in the catalog....
at first view it looked as though it was a antiqued silver velvet.
But it is not. 
 It is however - antiqued silver - silver with a faint gold wash over it
This is my favorite metallic of all. 
The company is Theodore Alexander.
The collection is called Argento.

The bed arrived and was delivered....
I called my client and asked her "How do you like it?
I asked her, "Is it beautiful?"
She screamed into the phone 
"It is SHUT UP gorgeous!!!"

Music to my ears. :)
I am considering the above chest for next to the bed and a skirted table on the other side.
You have to be careful when using a fabulous finish like this.
You definitely don't want too much of it.
Small doses...although that bed is not so small.
( But...OMG, it is a show stopper and that is what she wanted.)
It will lessen the effect.....
or shall we just say 'it will become too much of a good thing.'

The collection - Argento is made up of 
all pieces in this finish .

I added one more piece of this in the room on the other side.
A small tall chest to anchor the finish and balance the room.

Do you likie???

It really is breathtaking in person, and worth every penny.

go here to see collection

About Renée Finberg

I have been in this business since the age of 22.

I love what I do and cannot imagine my life without Design.

Design Challenges are great.

And because of those challenges

I have imported fine antique pieces from Paris,

Designed and Manufactured Furniture,

Created Fantastic Window Treatments,

And solved all kinds of spatial & architectural issues

With my unique style.

If I can't find it, I create it.

My rooms would make excellent movie sets.

I am a visual, tactile and audio sensitive individual.

Creating is what I live for, not math, not spelling, not science.

Just Great Design.

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.
