Antique Furniture And Design

Recreate the glorious mood of sun-washed Tuscan houses, with blue patina antique doors, be savvy with architectural arches that accent walls or use to frame big porch windows, and playful colored furniture like tribal chests and trunks, cotton throws and sheer curtains complete the look. Introduce a centuries-old look, no matter how new the room, with unique antique artifacts. Classic ceiling beams salvaged from an old barn or built from old woods. Create the design effect of the thick walls that help define a Tuscan room with a paint finish that has the texture and color variations of old plaster. The floors with large travertine tiles scattered in a french laid manner or ceramic tiles with tumbled edges give the most authentic look. Wood flooring with medium-tone gives the appearance of weathered aged floors. Pashmina throws with tapestry-inspired motifs, such as jamavar conjure a historical aura. To complement the seating choose upholstered pieces with slipcovers that gives the worn look.
