The first place I stopped in was Z Gallerie. I can always find great things there, most often when I'm not really on the lookout for anything. Yesterday, in particular, I was particularly taken with several items and wanted to share them with you.
|
| Cute turquoise garden stools |
|
| The three-panel wood piece in the back would be a great way to fill up a large or 2-story wall |
|
| Both of the paintings at the top caught my eye |
|
| I've always wondered what all the phonetic alphabet words were |
|
| The art at the top left was a moody abstract cityscape; the pair at the right was a drippy abstract of trees |
|
| Leggy elephants, anyone? |
|
| A silvery faux camera would be a cute addition to a table or shelf vignette |
|
| This silver-leafed table is made of resin, cast from the root of an old Acacia tree |
|
| Love nailheads, love gray leather, love the updated wingback shape |
|
| This mirror is taller than me, and would totally bounce some light around a room with its varying facets |
|
| These old grape vines would bring a natural element into a room |
|
| A silver branch bowl would bring some dimension to a dark coffee table or dining table |
|
| Need some height? Add something like this ring sculpture to your vignette |
|
| These turquoise ikat pillows had me at hello |
|
| Lovely pattern and color combo |
|
| The pattern on these pillows would coordinate well with the pillows above |
|
| The gears are a fun take on a coffee or end table |
I passed up all those other lovely items to take home this colorful specimen:
Well, I tried to take it home. It wouldn't fit in my car, so I measured The Mr.'s car when he got home from work, and he's heading to Z Gallerie today to pick it up for me. Can't wait to try it out above the sofa! It's exactly what I wanted -- various colors of blue (including turquoise), plus white and black, and pops of other bright colors like red/coral, yellow and green. Woo-hoo!
The only downside is that it's not original art. I was totally prepared to drop down some real money for a real grown-up piece of original art, so I'm still headed to the St. James Court Art Show tomorrow check things out, but I'm totally stoked about my find at Z Gallerie!
Do any of these items make you grab for your wallet?

I love the colors in the painting. You can always return it if you find an original at the art show.
ReplyWhat's the title/artist details of that painting? I saw it a while back at Zgallerie and went to buy it for my wife, but now it's no longer there and didnt' see it on their website either. Any help is much appreciated...
Reply@Anonymous To be honest, I have no idea! I found it at the store on clearance, and when I checked the website after my purchase, it wasn't listed, so I guess it had been discontinued. It's not signed, and there's no markings on the frame, either. Sorry!
