Established Elegance

In this stately vaulted dining room, inspiration was drawn from the rustic beams and natural stone fireplace. A special, handmade table with a thick, sturdy top and large trestle legs is constructed of quarter sawn white oak and adds much needed weight to this voluminous room. The finish of the table bears a slightly metallic undertone, which catches the light. The straight-back chairs bring in a European flair, in a modern way. Brown leather and a Belgian tacking style pair with alder wood legs and arms on the chairs to elevate the overall aesthetic of the room. Oversized lanterns continue this elevated, European styling, while the sideboard also points to a more elegant design. Its arched face is a sophisticated feature, while its distressed finish helps balance the style in a more casual direction. Finally, the multi-toned Ushak rug in an antique weave reinforces the established feel of the room.
