The Chinoiserie Chic Summer Clutch

Mahjong Embroidered Clutch


This fabulous mahjong embroidered clutch sold out instantly and has just restocked. It is quite fantastic with its embroidered dragon. A perfect little summer bag and the best gift for the mahjong lover.

Fabulous Find

Brass Shell Hand Towel Holder

 
This great piece is selling like hotcakes. This is so perfect for a powder room or any bathroom. It would be lovely in a beach house, but is so elegant it will work anywhere. And wait until you see the price!

Seashell Motifs

Set of 4 Linen Coquille Scallop Placemats

Shell motifs date back to the Greco-Romans as a favorite decorative feature. To both the Greeks and the Romans, the shell signified fertility and was associated with Aphrodite, Greek goddess of love and beauty, and with Venus, Roman goddess of the same attributes.

Seashell Obelisks

Amanda Lindroth


I came across this Amanda Lindroth vignette and was of course drawn to the collection of seashell valentines that are favorites of hers.

The Seashell Bust

One Kings Lane

 
I love shell encrusted busts. Unfortunately, they are very expensive to buy and I have not had the inclination to try making one - I am not a serious DIY type at all. I have found a couple of very pretty ones at excellent prices.

A Tropical Vignette

Paolo Moschino

 
I love everything about this vignette. Slipper chairs are by far my favorite chairs. Elegant, low profile, and so comfortable. My favorite chair at CCC is a vintage signed Baker chair with goose down cushions.

The Seashell Mirror & Chinoiserie

Mark D. Sikes


 I love the combination of a beautiful seashell mirror and chinoiserie, whether blue and white Chinese porcelain, celadon, chinoiserie wallpaper, rattan, or faux bamboo. Vintage seashell mirrors are wonderful, but can be very expensive. I previously posted on one at 1stDibs that was over $22,000.

Vintage Palm Beach Wicker

Palm Beach Wicker China Cabinet

 I had to share a wonderful vintage find of my daughter's this week. She and her fiancé love vintage pieces and are filling their new home in Annapolis, Maryland with them. She found this vintage wicker china cabinet on Facebook Marketplace at a Delaware beach house.
