Use Nature To Inspire You

Posted By: Holly  //  Category: Furniture, fun decor

Cloud SofaLook around you, there is so much that can become good design with the right combination of things. Designers use nature all of the time and the company I’m telling you about today is no exception.

If you have ever wanted to sit on a cloud then Meritalia is the company for you. Take this amazing sofa for example. It looks like a cloud and really is a very stylish and modern addition to any home, pair it with white or dark tables and two blue chairs and you have a very interesting focal point to your room. You could also use glass tables to keep that airy effect.

A Classic Look

Posted By: Holly  //  Category: Furniture

Unless you are really into modern furniture and only modern furniture you may have come across wonderful homes that have a look that is still in style, but they have had the same furniture for 50 years. Well this is because they used a classic style when decorating there home. Most of the time this style involves furnishings from the Baroque or the Rococo period.

What was the Baroque period? Well during this time most of the furniture we saw was in the grand palaces of France and other European countries. This furniture and architecture was always very grand and ornate. The French furniture of the time was very ornate and known as Louie the XV style furniture.  The Rococo is similar to the Baroque period except that things have been scaled down. The furniture became more feminine and smaller. This furniture is often referred to Louie the XVI style.

The following pictures are of antique furniture from this time period.

The picture below is a very ornate piece from the Baroque period. Most pieces in this time were heavy and looked very much like this. At least in the palaces, of course no normal person could afford this. 

Baroque table

Rococo sofaIf you look closely at the picture of the sofa or demi-marquise you will see what is called a scroll leg.  This is one way to tell if the design of the furniture is based on the Baroque or Rococo periods.  If you want real Baroque or Rococo furniture, please find an expert on the subject and have them help you. There are many reproductions and knockoffs out there now, that are great if you can’t afford the real thing, but you may pay for the real thing and not get it.

Rococo tableThis table or console is an example of a Rococo piece. Notice how it looks lighter then the top one above. This shows how many people even the new king of France thought the grand furniture and over use of money was not a good idea anymore. Of course there are still amazing carving and gold work on these pieces.

These are just a few examples of furniture that many consider a classic look. There are still others and I will get to them too in later post. If you do invest in any of this furniture please remember it only retains it’s value if it’s left alone, if you want it restored talk to a professional. Never paint an antique it will lose it’s value.
