Stars

http://www.quatrefoildesign.com/


Another lovely design motif is the star. The resurgence of interest in starburst mirrors is gratifying, as my most treasured furniture item is an antique French starburst mirror...every time I see it in my living room, it makes me smile.

Here are some particularly appealing examples of the star....

  1. Hi Sarah - what a great blog you have. Thanks for linking mine on yours - I'll put a link to yours now. I love that Paolo Buffa sideboard, I saw that on 1st Dibs this week and loved it too.

    Also, thanks for the link to the Kerry Joyce interview, he's one of my favorites too.
