“The Nettie Darr Table features claw-and-glass orb feet inspired by a Victorian heirloom, paired with customizable mesh, mirror, or glass tops,” says Dixon.
“Multi-toned brass vines coil around a glowing Edison bulb within a hand-blown glass orb, blending bronze, brass, and pewter tones to harmonize mixed metal finishes in any space,” says Dixon.
“Generously scaled Potting Console for indoor or outdoor use. Originally designed for watering plants, it now serves as a versatile metal bar cart with gurney wheels for easy mobility,” says Dixon.
This sculptural Santorini Chaise seamlessly blends Grecian influences with Edwardian form, crafted from hand-welded aluminum for strength and mobility, and complete with a drain-dry cushion for added comfort.
The Mesh Pedestal Cabinet boasts an industrial quality, featuring metal mesh paired with lion’s claw feet. Its open design allows light to filter through while serving as stylish storage for objects.
The Nettie Darr Table, Synapse Pendant, and Potting Console showcase timeless artistry.
This handmade obelisk-inspired pedestal features woven stainless steel panels, delicate moldings, and lion’s paw feet, making it perfect for outdoor use when paired with mesh Elway Lanterns and a Potting Console.
