This pleated, ruffled lampshade casts a flattering glow wherever you need it: equally at home on a bedside table or a consoling corner lamp, it pairs especially well with @christopherspitzmiller’s Hans Medium Table Lamp in Celtic Green for @visualcomfort, should you be in the mood to get it exactly right.  
Part of the “Plastic Surgery” collection…you have a beautiful face, or maybe a new beautiful face, so show it off. Your lamps need a facelift too.

This wedding’s theme became “The Age of Innocence on Acid”…dinner tables were set with Mottahedeh tobacco-leaf chargers, vintage bohemian glassware, and guavas and kumquats among the flowers—bursts of color to foil to the National Arts Club’s gilded, neo-Victorian backdrop.

We’re accepting a handful of new wedding clients…learn more about Houses & Parties events at the link in bio.

This table in Mrs. Astor’s library showcased her “American Rose” with masses of candlelight. We paid a grower upstate to dig up bushes and placed them on the table, dirt, roots, bramble and all. I paced around all night, hands behind my back like Patton, avoiding a fire disaster. Learn more about Houses & Parties events at the link in bio.

I directed servers to offer slices and scoops with smiles, as some guests were convinced the buffet was an art installation…
