I love that free standing fireplace. Everytime I see one in a chic restaurant or fancy hotel, I mentally calculate how to steal it without anyone noticing. I've tried to find out who makes it and a bit about its pedigree (I mean, it is iconic) but I can't seem to figure it out. Why have I never asked anyone??
The combo of the spindly table, the voluptuous fireplace, the elegant curve of the vases, the deep richness of the colour scheme refracted by the crystal - it's just blissful. Almost makes me miss winter. Not that we're having any kind of summer, particularly.

Yes give me the fireplace any day - we've got your lousy miserable weather too - it keeps coming over the Atlantic!
ReplyDeleteThat fireplace is absolutely magical. Steal it! Do it!
ReplyDeleteOoh yes, I love that!
ReplyDeleteKate: Isn't it absurd. I can't take it anymore!!!
ReplyDeleteSal: Who deserves a gorgeous fireplace more than us? Why don't I have one??
Wendy: So pretty. I know!
I have seen handbags that are big enough to hold a fireplace in. I totally think you could manage it. Distract the staff with some of your croissants and the fireplace is yours.
ReplyDeleteit is so fabulous, would need a certain type of room to carry it off though i think!
ReplyDeleteYou know, at first I think the branches in the vase were on fire...
ReplyDeleteI do like fires in winter, though right now I would much rather have air conditioning...
Very cool. Would fit your TO chic aesthetic.
ReplyDeleteI believe that's made by FireOrb. Now that you know, could you pick me one up too? I think it would look equally fab in my house. And I think we're having your summer on top of ours. It's going to be near 100f/32c all week - I'm dying.
ReplyDeletei want to live here
ReplyDeleteThat's so gorgeous. I'd love a freestanding fireplace. I've been eyeing these...
ReplyDeleteBel: Those new Prada bags are totally big enough for this fireplace! Will try soon and let you know how it goes :-)
ReplyDeletePink: Totally. But I'm committed to creating that room!
Rebecca: It's cuz you're getting our summer out there! Wait a while and you'll be wanting this.
Miss C: Thank you! I love the thought of my chic TO asthetic!
Alek: Thanks so much for that info! I should have thought to ask you...
nycrun: Oh, I know. And I love your blog. Thanks for your comment.
Dream: Really? If you get one of these you have to post on it!!
