Hope your weekend is going well! We have been so busy rearranging the stores and displaying all the new arrivals. Just few days ago I took some time to set up and style a quick photo shoot. As we were hanging a tapestry above an antique buffet that just arrived in our most recent container, a lovely still life setting developed, so we wanted to share the inspiration. This vintage tapestry was designed as a portiere almost a hundred years ago. These were used by the French to cover doors, draping them in the winter to keep drafts at bay. It is trimmed in its original velvet with perfectly preserved greige tones. We love the texture of velvet as it adds an unmistakable feeling of warmth to the design of a room.
Check back soon as we will have a new giveaway next week, and as always ~ more Antiques in Style!
