Asian Warriors
Years ago, I had a conversation with this lovely shop owner in New Orleans. Her shop was decidedly french. I remember at the time telling her I loved french country, but did not want an entire house of it. She said the easiest way to keep a room from being too much of one style is to add one special Asian accent to the space.
It's a subtle trick that works every time!
Here is a wonderful example of an Asian accessory. The entire set of five terra cotta warriors is only $19.50. I think they have a real sophisticated, yet rustic feel to them. They would look great on a console table in a foyer or grouped on a painted built in bookshelf.
And just for fun, here are a few rooms using the shop keepers trick. Can you find the Asian touches in these images?
Beautiful, no?
Have a marvelous day! M.
