SK Dining Room

This room is a feast for the eyes. There are collections of great objects everywhere.

One of the new products that I’m so excited about are the dishes. They’re a little bit more casual and have a beautiful, perfect white color. The shapes look hand thrown, but they’re also very tailored, to give them that nice balance.

I’ve used vintage antlers on lots of different projects and have spray painted them white when it fit the room. We selected the best ones from a private collection and molded mine from those. The matte white finish brings out all the incredible details.

I wanted brackets that weren’t so big in scale, so you could use them as part of a grouping.  These are in natural wood and white. All we did was lean the dishes on the brackets, but you can see just how effective doing quantities can be.

I found this whole collection of antique lamp slips in France. Originally, they were used to cast ceramic lamp bases. I bought them all and we modeled my collection from those. They’re not intended to be used as vases, but simply as beautiful art objects.

    I have a question regarding the fabric linen color “Flax.” It appears to look like a natural kaki color in the catalog. However, looks white online. Please advise on what color it actually is. Also, would this be a good fabric to use on a headbaord, such as one of the ones from Ballard Designs?

  2. Ballard Designs Says:

    Jamie: The Suzanne Kasler Flax Linen is a grayed-down khaki color. We think it is a good idea for you to order a swatch so you can see it in person. The fabric has a wonderful woven texture and would look fab on a headboard!

    I just purchased 2 Grammercy chairs and 2 Courbe cube ottomons in Scandicci Gray along with a “center” tufted ottoman in the gold pommeroy and want a settee to compliment it. I noticed you have a velvet called “Sand”. Optimally, the Hudson settee design is the perfect fit. Would the “sand” velvet compliment this arrangement?
    Also, I absolutely love the petite “X” bench and have been thinking about that in Lorenzo grey. I’m recently married and trying to merge styles and am lost in the process!

    Susan: You are right on target with your choices. We love what you are doing. The Sand Velvet is a great compliment to the Scandicci Print, and the addition of the Lorenzo Charcoal gives the whole thing color and texture. Another good choice for a velvet for the Hudson Settee is our Camel Velvet. It brings out more of the golder tones. Either way, we think you can’t miss! Just make sure to order swatches so you can see the colors and textures up close and personal. Let us know if we can help with anything else.
