Modern History

My dad sends me interesting clippings from time to time about things he sees in his design travels. Today I got an ad from Modern History furniture from him and found some UNBELIEVABLE pieces. Come to find out, they are owned by the same company that owns Somerset Bay, my new favorite (very cheery) furniture line which I posted about a few months back. An abundance of goodies.

I have a thing for buffet tables. Right now I have two in my small dining room while I try to decide which goes into storage for the “next house” or “beach house” (lol). This one is insanely gorgeous, and has the copper wire hatching on the doors like my antique find- except I can guarantee you this one ain’t $75!

These mirrors are both amazing. As is the decaying layered wallpaper background. Score one for the photo stylist.

This trunk is bananas. I love it. Tough yet so sophisticated.

    What a nice dad you have. My dad does the same. Always saving clippings for me and magazines with things that he thinks I will like. Kudos to your dad. What a great find!

    What an amazing trunk! I bought a trunk years ago from a flea market. Turns out it is from WWII, but I would prefer something new vs an actual antique.

    Thanks for the tip off!

    Love your blog! I just had to comment on top of everything else, that I LOVE THAT TRUNK! It would look so good at the foot of my new bedroom set that I’m getting.
