apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

The salt-and-pepper shakers are weird. I love the vase though. By itself it would be great--used with any other pieces would probably be overkill though.

Didn't Anthropologie do this 3 years ago?

Beautiful! Reminds me a lot of Anthropologie's Reef Collection, and for a fraction of the cost at Tiffany's:

I like it, especially the tea pot (not so much the salt and pepper shakers), but it isn't groundbreaking. Anthropologie and a bunch of other places did this several years ago, it was a mini-fad. I mean, I have a great vase just like this that I bought in Walmart 18 months ago! Doesn't need to be groundbreaking to be nice though, and it's nice.

Well, the Tiffany stuff isn't new, either -- I got the urchin vase (which is gorgeous, btw) as a wedding gift probably a year and a half ago, and it wasn't new then.

But I love it -- perfect organic/modern.

I've not seen these before and find them very appealing.
I love modern pieces that reference the raw natural...
