These are nice and natural modern frames... and, they have an option to be a bud vase or a candle holder depending on which way you turn them over.

All the holes in this shade are arranged around the bulb, so no matter where you look at it, you can’t escape the beatiful rays of light it...Read more

This chair is currently discounted about a $1000. I want one now. "Comfort in seating is harder to achieve on a small scale, but the Don Lounge Chair (1999) by Gerard van den Berg exceeds all expectations. As part of the chair's studied proportions, a high, angled back supports the head and neck while allowing for a slight recline. The seat widens at the knee to allow for different seating...Read more
