While I’ve yet to attempt my own celestial ceiling mural I’ve managed to achieve a dramatic effect simply through light and shadow. The glass-front shelves under the elaborate antique tapestry, provides ample storage space for our online shop as well as a wonderful display opportunity.
Lighting is provided by a candlestick lamp and a lovely vintage Italian art pottery urn, which cast light through the large domed birdcage and a vintage pair of moose antlers surrounded a display of porcelain plates including one of heraldic design. A pair of gilt framed Victorian prints glimmer alongside rusting wrought iron wall sconces.
Clustered around the small boudoir lamp are antique books with a distressed antique marble bust, a large shell filled glass compote, and a beautifully crafted iron sword. The elegant urn light fixture is also surrounded by antique leather bound books as well as a pair of terracotta cherub candlesticks.
