Modern Primitive

We're very excited to feature the following photos and would like to thank Cote De Texas, Gloria Oviatt and Joshua Lowenfels for these images! A big fan of Mr. Lowenfel's gallery (we've blogged with some of his collection before), we revisited to feature a few offerings that we've been watching for some time and searched for some good interior shots as a complement. That's when we found the Cote De Texas feature on Gloria Ovitt (please use the link for more photos of her house, her contact information and what shows she'll be selling at) and her wonderful house! Finally, a wonderful, clean contemporary that uses the lines and palette of Early American and Country pieces to their clean-lined, heavily patina'd best.

Thinking Persian

We layer our persian rugs at the house in NH because we love the look and it's practical. Sturdy, chic and amazing at hiding dirt, persian rugs are timeless for a reason. Now, it seems you can walk on them and in them, sit on them, gift them or use on the gift. Love it.
