As we head into New York today to put the final touches on our booth at the International Gift Fair, we thought you might enjoy a sneak peak at our new Fall/Winter collection – Modern Vintage. We all know that mixing the old with the new is not a recent trend in fashion or home decor but with the current popularity of the Fiat Abarth 500 and the “flea market meets loft chic” vibe of Restoration Hardware and Wisteria, we couldn’t help but design a collection that combines vintage and modern elements. Juxtaposing different eras and styles provides both contrast and harmony in a room or in a home accessory and the more surprising the mix, the better.
That’s why we paired a contemporary bouquet of vibrant green hydrangea mixed with ranunculus and passion flowers with a textured cream vase, reminiscent of Laguna vintage pottery…
and a classic white phalaenopsis orchid in an orange porcelain planter with clean lines (hello, Tangerine Tango!)
Homes need a history and a truly modern space would look cold without some vintage charm and the opposite is equally true, since contemporary elements help vintage decor stay relevant.
Luckily our designs complement both modern and traditional spaces, adding life and pops of color where needed.
P.S. If you’re walking the show, please stop by our booth on Pier 94 – #42059 and say hi!

Totally agree – love the mix!! I think you’re right on target!! The collection looks beautiful and I can’t wait to see it in person over the weekend.
Gorgeous arrangements! Best of luck with the gift show. And that top room reminds me of a martha stewart room from years ago that was featured in the magazine.
Beautiful arrangements! I love the first 2 especially. Hope you have a great show!!

The Mixed Green Bouquet with the passion flowers is quite exceptional. After 35 years of making artificial botanical designs it is hard to WOW me. But you did! The whole collection is gorgeous.
Love, love all of your new offerings…good luck at the show. If you get time, my good friends
Robin Morris and Susan Henry are there with their new product offering …Shades International…they are designing fabulous lamp shades…I hope you get chance to meet.
