Pink in the Windows at ABC Home

The windows from ABC Carpet and Home are amazing works -- artful in their placement of objects. Who does not want for a scarlet runner up their wall? The industrial moving cart laden with iron chairs and chartreuse vases contrast nicely with the pink of the rug. The neutral foreground of a cream colored amphora balances out the window and softens the edges of the vignette.







It is the pink lamp shade that sends me to the edge of want.











I find the hanging light fixtures to appeal to my sense of what I imagine the lighting of the Ottoman Empire may have felt like. The filament light bulb seem to flicker like candle light, imparting a small soft glow from the hand blown shades.
