Gorgeous Things
3rd April 2012
While flicking through the latest Elle Decoration magazine to see our deVOL advert, I noticed a small piece on an Interiors shop I visited in New York called John Derian http://www.johnderian.com The trip was ages ago but it reminded me of the shop which was amazing, everywhere you looked there was something fascinating to catch your eye from little cards and candle holders to dried mushrooms for hanging on your wall. I wanted to take pictures of everything i saw, every single thing was unusual and sometimes weird but very different, it was so inspirational. Take a look at their website as although some parts are very ornate the mix of things for sale is quite fascinating. There is a section on seaweed images, take a look they are so delicate and beautiful and have given me some ideas for our next deVOL Spalshback design http://www.johnderian.com/index_decoupage.html
One of the sections on the John Derian website sells items made by quirky designers from all over the world, very select and truly original. I decided to look on the section entitled Astier de Vialette http://www.astierdevillatte.com/ and was very happy to find a Parisian based shop that sells very exciting ceramics among other things. I love Mediterranean styled pottery in beautiful bright white and pastel colours, Astier de Vialette is rather more sophisticated table wear, but still with a continental feel. Quite beautiful and very covetable. Have a look at the website the products are beautiful but the website itself is fun and different too.
