Decorating Styles - Example of Eclectic Design

I am about to ship out a number of pieces - some bought from my site and one custom matched - to a customer in Virginia.  I think they are a good example of "Eclectic" design:

  • Straight clean lines evident in the square ottoman and stylish settee
  • Use of wood-tones other than "brown" - use a rich satin metallic-like finish on the wood for several pieces
  • Inclusion of "Traditional" Martha Washington chairs although with a more contemporary large pattern fabric
  • Use of jewel-tone colors (look at that great ikat-type fabric by Duralee)
I can't wait to see these great pieces in her home and love how this group came together.
