Elegant Accent
A gold leaf iron base draws out warm tones in the Puttick Side Table’s natural white agate frame. With scalloped edges, the accent piece adds richness and complexity to a space. “This dainty little side table is such an elegant cutie,” Gilmore says. “It could be used in a living room, small seating area or in a bathroom next to a free-standing tub.”

Chic Seating
Like its namesake, the fabulous sheepskin Stiletto Bench is supported by narrow stainless steel legs with a shiny brassy finish. “It’s always nice to have a bench at the end of a bed if room allows,” Gilmore notes. “This pretty piece is so stylish and adds such a romantic and glam factor to any space.”

Playfully curved edges on this Scalloped Round Mirror add an element of whimsy to any space. The thin gold frame complements any interior design style. “This mirror is perfect for a stylish look without being too heavy or ornate,” Gilmore asserts. “It would be great in an entry or hallway, over a dresser or a powder room vanity.”
