This new line of recycled Coffee Wood tree material is the main in this collection. The unique pieces are not only made of reclaimed wood, but also handcrafted from start to finish. The coffee wood is naturally colored with only a clear finish of hand rubbed lacquer. Before the coffee wood is used, it is boiled and then treated to prevent insect problems.... I like this idea verse the use of chemical treatments. All in all, the rugged and natural look of these pieces is appealing. I think they'll be hot and will be a great replacement for Faux Bois.

JCCCC4326 – Rectangle Coffee table. How cool. Very unique …. read the above Consol Table description for the rest of the info. 48w x 28d x 19h. $1395

A Sunburst Mirror Collection
The other day I found Besty Jeczka's blog called - in translation - "A New House In Old Style" and she has some absolutely wonderful images.... that took time to put together with taste and style. In particular, I loved her Sunburst Mirror Study .... I borrowed a few of the images from her site, but you should visit her to see the incredible variation of them! I love the second one down - made from huge porcupine quills - very cool !!! Click on her blog name and go see two dozen fabulous starburst mirrors.
Question du jour - what do you call them? Sunburst or Starburst Mirrors?

A Victorian table top nickel mirror sits on a Georgian side table. A pair of tobacco tins and asparagus plates finish it off. The Alpine walking sticks are a favorite.
Another nice English Chest of Drawers topped with a French Mirror. The Wucai platter is fronted by a pair of vintage Mastiff bookends.
