Sun Substitute
When you’re looking to make a statement from above, it’s tough to beat the Cilindro Eight Light Pendant.

Bronze hardware adds style for a dramatic moment of illumination. At 84 inches wide, the bold design should make it a top contender for a place in your home.

Super Bowl
Whether for purpose (to hold knickknacks near an entryway) or for looks, the brass Colmar Bowl, available through Kravet, makes a worthy centerpiece. With a silver patinated finish, the object ages nicely as it draws attention for its sculptural handles. The matte color makes it decidedly of-the-moment, too; place it on a display shelf with deep blues and greens—ideal color pairings for the metal.

With its 4-foot-tall padded back, each L-shaped seat can be paired with its corresponding side to create a sofa cocoon. Multiple sizes and upholsteries available.
