High Point: More Favourites

I took hundreds of pictures when I was in High Point earlier this month, and there are still more great things that I haven’t shared yet!

I went to see Barry Dixon’s new line of furnishings for Tomlinson. This was the most amazing fixture! It just glowed from within.

I love how much attention he pays to the little details that bring a piece from ordinary to extraordinary.

Williamsburg brand continues to impress me. After we got to be “friends” on Pinterest, they invited me to see their HP showrooms. Their tagline is “Trend Meets Tradition”. They are taking pieces from their extensive archives and giving them a modern twist.

One of the best pieces I saw at HP was their new mirror, which comes in two sizes.

Williamsburg is also doing lighting, which was terrific.

Each piece is a reflection of something in the village of Williamsburg – a fence, a chair-back or an item in the collections.

They have a series of drum lights that are painted in the original bright and vibrant colours that were in the earliest houses in Williamsburg.The pull on the light was taken from a finial on the top of a building.

I always make a point to stop by and see what William Yeoward has to show, and this visit didn’t disappoint. Last market, his signature table had a fox head, and this year, it’s a ram’s head.

The detail on his pieces is always amazing, and it’s also personal – each piece has a story.

The legs on this piece are modeled after an old briar walking stick and the table top is carved leather, after a William Morris pattern.

The legs on this piece reference an old Jacobean barley-twist piece.

Of course, it’s Yeoward’s beautiful hurricane with Greek keys that adds the final touch!
