WONDERFUL WICKER THAT WILL MAKE YOUR HEART BEAT QUICKER

Working with craftsmen and the machines in a workroom that has been making wicker and rattan since the Victorian era, Soane Britain has some incredible new rattan additions.  But beauty takes time and an exacting hand.  Making a sofa can take over a week. The casual lightness in the material adds an airy addition to any space. Soane's dedication to making their goods in Britain earned them the prestigious Walpole Award for Luxury Craftmanship in 2010. As you can see, there is no talent shortage in England, as founder and creative director Lulu Lytle designs everything and it is produced to perfecting standards. The quality as well as her creative eye are nonpareil.

Be your own Venus on The Half Shell in the Venus Chair. It is just magical.

The Carousel Bar Stool

This lamp is very Moooi, taking one medium and creating an entire piece out of it. The malleable material looks so fresh and new in this old-timey table lamp form.
