Rock the Casbah!
Introduced in the Fall 2010 market, Currey and Co's new pierced metal pendants were inspired by ancient designs from North Africa and the Middle East. This trend has been around for ages. Europeans and in particular, the French, has been enamored with this look for the past decade. Many well-known interior designers have used this captivating look in an updated
and modern way by mixing furnishings from the
East and the West. Currey’s new pendants bring
a distinctive look that goes well with traditional or contemporary great effect. Made of treated iron that has been electroplated with copper and nickel, the pendant base is then finished
with a thick layer of lacquer to prevent oxidation. Some
have the piercing embellished with amber or blue
glass beads while others are simply pierced to allow the
natural light to come through. The pendants become starry canopies when lit in a darkened room. Find these pendants on Currey's site by clicking here.

What's Old Is New Again
Using recycled, reclaimed,and sustainable products
have never been more important. Whatever you want to call it, rough luxe, industrial
or farm chic, the design trend is not going away. Even
commercial interiors have look, which we call rough luxe.
The interior is a mixture of polished and rough. Seating is lush upholstery with ornate includes traditional styled chandeliers of carved wood and recycled glass pendants. Wall decor consists of found objects such as industrial gears with a natural rust patina. The Worktop Coffee Table is shown at left, and embodies these design styles.
