Past Life Favorite...

Friday, January 30, 2009
Carl Moore Antiques was one of my favorite haunts when I lived in Houston. Now, I just lurk on their fabulous website. Don't be swayed by this selection. I tend to favor more Ethnic and Asian pieces. They actually specialize in French and English pieces as well as fabulous reproduction dining tables and chairs. The patina is incredible. They also have a fabulous selection of Louis Philippe style mirrors as well as some amazing painted items.


I almost bought this sewing box for a client's bedroom to go between two upholstered armchairs. It's so pretty in real life. It has a grayish blue cast and a fabulous patina. It used to be a sewing box.



Need to change the lamp shade, but I love all things antique dolphin...


Very cool roof tile...

Perfect for your own Garden of Eden...

This feels young and fresh...
Cheers!

I really want to go antiquing in Houston--it seems like there are so many great places there. Houston also has such a great Galleria, and Dallas' is well---not.
