Luxe accessories to add shine and panache to your home

art at the heart

One luxe accessory that will inspire awe like no other is SICIS’s mosaic masterpiece that features lively butterflies and flamingos in a pop abstractionism design. Made entirely of multi-coloured Murano glass tiles that have been chosen, cut, and placed by expert hands for a truly one-of-a-kind look, it is exquisite and an addition that will instantly up your home several notches. Bright colours and intricate details offer us a new way to experience the art of mosaic.

Genius Lights

If you are looking for a home accessory that exudes a strong character, just pick a chandelier. Decorative lighting has a way of completely changing the look of a home-just put it up and Viola! Barovier & Toso’s eye-catching Rosati Collection can be a choice. Featuring simple and elegant lines that transcend fashion, these chandeliers take their cue from drawings conserved in the historical archives of this more-than-a-century-old Italian company that specializes in Venetian glass. These chandeliers which uses the rostrato technique (a piece of glass with extruded pointed tips) to hide the lamps of each candle cup from view, is a little stroke of genius; light is refracted infinitely as it passes through the glass tips. The collection, available in a number of sizes and striking finishes, is arresting and sets the mood in any kind of space.

Yet another pick can be from Czech designer Sans Souci’s majestic new collection, Genesis. These delicate yet daring pieces, inspired by the origins of life and culture, have bold, decorative aesthetics to transform your interior in a jiffy. Expert nanocoating technology has been used to create a high-end finish for each glass component in gold for an opulent touch-a striking lighting range that will evoke emotions and creates feelings in all who behold them.

side stars

Your home could be luxe and perfect. Yet you could just need to add one new conversation starter. A sure-fire one is side tables from Bosa’s vibrant and playful Bossanova collection. These striking side tables-one, white and black featuring geometrical lines and polka dots and the other, a symphony of bright colours harbouring polka dots, bars, and multiple patterns-are modern and fun, bound to illuminate your stylish space.

A matter of vision

Italian meta-luxury brand Visionnaire’s Leonardo bookshelf, which won the 2023 Wallpaper Design Awards in the Best Sleeper Hits category is an addition to the iconic Leonardo family-an understated yet sophisticated addition that you just cannot miss adding to the home. A perfect blend of form, function, and open design, its soft backlighting makes it the perfect shelf for a space where books or your beloved collection can shine. Then of course, there is the rather splendid leather or fabric-covered cannetè back panel of the metal and shaped MDF shelves that exudes an embossed effect when illuminated.

hand knotted

When in the mood to give your home the look of modern royalty, go with a Hands carpet from its new and exclusive Persian collection. Hand-knotted to perfection using 100 per cent wool, the traditional Persian rug has been elevated to a realm of beauty and freshness not witnessed before. Each is a timeless piece of art, with exotic floral patterns and vintage motifs accentuated by a charming combination of hues and nuanced thread work.

art in stone

With a legacy that dates back 150 years, Stone Art’s collection of intricately-carved zellige-a Moorish art form in which colourful tiles made of a unique natural clay sourced from parts of Morocco- fountains is as exquisitely beautiful as they come. Inspired by history and crafted with unparalleled artistic flair, you can easily let the fountains do all the talking. They embody the beauty of a bygone era while adding timeless artistry to any setting. Carefully chiselled to form a melange of geometric shapes and then delicately pieced together, these fountains in vibrant blue, yellow, and red hues are bound to elevate your setting.

coffee it is!

Italian luxury brand Longhi’s Edge coffee tables sets the mood and elevates the ambience of any kind of space. Evoking emotion and exuding a striking personality, these are one-of-a-kind coffee tables that lets you add pizzazz to dull corners or give that prim sofa a quirky companion.
