Maybe we don’t want our mother’s or grandmother’s dining room set, but we do want the warmth and excitement she brought to the table for all the festive family celebrations the holidays still hold. There’s nothing quite like great food and good company around a sparkling, formally-set table – with all your best crystal, treasured china and gleaming silverware, on a jaw-dropping dining room table that completely expresses your personal style.

Here are a few things to consider when selecting the perfect dining room table: How many guests do you usually invite for dinner over the holidays? Do you want to incorporate an area rug into your dining décor? For the best proportions, the rug should extend a minimum of 24 inches on all sides of the dining table to allow enough space for guests to pull out chairs without tripping over the rug. 

But before you think about what to serve, who to invite and how to decorate the room, first consider the real centerpiece of the celebration: the dining room table itself.

Whether you love traditional, transitional or modern furniture with a more avant-garde edge, Sklar has an impressive array of dining tables to make all your festive holiday celebrations shine, and turn every dinner gathering into an event to remember.

The Fine Art of Dining
For a table with an ultra-modern edge, the Perseo Dining Table is a streamlined and striking mix of gleaming glass and wood that’s sure to make an impact.

The crystal tabletop floats above the clean lines of its solid wood construction, giving it a sense of gleaming grandeur and strength. The long expanse of tabletop gives ample room for all the family and friends you share the season with, and the clear glass goes perfectly with any dining room color scheme.

Architectural Elegance
Italians know how to celebrate, and the Skorpio Keramik Dining Table blends two great Italian design concepts. Created by Andrea Lucattello, for Cattelan Italia, this piece makes a modern, majestic impression for special occasions, while being durable enough to take on the stresses of everyday life. Available in steel legs finished in clear lacquer, white, black or orange, the strong, geometric base supports the sleek surface while leaving ample legroom. The tabletop is crafted from smooth Calcatta or Alabastro Marmi ceramic, with soft, subtle veining that compliments its bold, angular base.

Recipe for Reimagining
When you’re not meeting family over the holidays, either of these stunning dining tables can double as jaw-dropping meeting tables or work surfaces, making a lasting impression on clients and collaborators as well.

Mid-century modern broadly describes architecture, furniture, and graphic design from the middle of the 20th century (roughly 1933 to 1965). First attributed to Author Cara Greenberg as the title for her book, Mid-century Modern: Furniture of the 1950s, Greenberg claims she “just made that up as the book’s title”, yet she surely coined a phrase that’s stood the test of time.

Take the Chair
A timeless mid-century inspired piece can have a huge design impact on your living room or home office. At Sklar Furnishings, mid-century modern furniture is alive and shining, with its enduring quality and timeless appeal. Like the Roger Accent Chair with its clever angled frame that looks different from every angle you view it. Besides having a great design, the Roger chair is uber comfortable, and available in a juicy range of colors and finishes.

Mid-Century Adds Glamour. Here’s the Proof:
The Corridor Bar Cabinet by BDI has a classic mid-century modern look that’s sure to top up your style. The double louvered doors provide easy access to everything a well-stocked bar requires. The Corridor Bar Cabinet even comes with its own wooden stemware rack for storing wine glasses, bottles and accessories.

Media Frenzy
For a mid-century media cabinet that’s big on style and economical on space, the BDI Corridor Quad-Wide Media Cabinet is a great solution. With its clean, louvered wooden doors and vertical wooden slats, it blends well with modern furniture and antique pieces alike.

The two center doors open up for ample storage, and an adjustable shelf to hide speakers and other media equipment. Its black, micro-etched glass top and black steel legs with optional wheels make it a sleek, functional console that can be moved anywhere to suit your entertainment configuration.

How to Mix it
Mid-century modern furniture shines atop a rich, Bokhara rug. Pair wire-frame mid-century inspired chairs with a gleaming hardwood floor and sleek teak console, or try some of the hottest new Pantone colors for sofa and pillow fabrics.

Whatever your style, adding some mid-century modern furniture can ramp up your décor, giving you fashion and function like never before.

When most people walk into a showroom, they generally know if they want a low or a high-pile rug, or a contemporary or traditional pattern to compliment their ornate or modern furniture.

At Sklar, we want you to have both feet on the ground when it comes to rug selection, so we’ve compiled some additional terms you may want to know, to help you hone in on the perfect carpet for your home.

Axminster: The preferred method of replicating original Oriental rugs. The pile is inserted one row of U-shaped tufts at a time. The tufts are then anchored into the primary backing, which is simultaneously woven, giving the rug superior color and design.

Aubusson: A French flat-weave design, usually featuring an ornate medallion in the center, and using pastel colors.

Bokhara Rugs: Bokhara rugs are considered among the finest carpets in Asia. The name, Bokhara, comes from an ancient trade center in the area now known as Turkestan, located on the famous Silk Road. The rich, colorful designs are dominated by rows of “guls” and surrounding geometric patterns. A “gul” is an octagon-shaped medallion design typical of these traditional hand-woven carpets. This pattern is repeated in rows and columns, usually on a deep red field, but is also seen in rust, tan, orange, light and dark blue, green, aqua, and gold.

Border: The design forming the outside edge of a rug and its surrounds, or frames.

Bordered Rug: A rug with a solid or patterned border surrounding a matching solid-colored field.

Chain Stitch: A crochet stitch used in rug making that involves successive loops to lock the final crosswise threads in place at the end of the rug.

Contemporary: Designs that are characterized by stark contrasts, bold colors, and geometric or free form designs. Contemporary patterns are often architectural or modern, but can also include retro designs as well.

Cut and Loop Pile: A combination of cut ends and loops of yarn, creating a variety of surface textures.

Cut Pile: A rug where the yarn loops are cut, to create a more uniform or smooth texture.

Dhurrie: You may have heard of the famous Dhurrie rugs of India. They are a flat-woven rug usually made of wool, and are noted for their geometrical or whimsical designs and lighter colors.

Drop-stitch: A technique in machine-made rug construction where a line is “dropped” to add a carved or textural look.

Flat-weave: Any rug woven without a knotted pile such as a Dhurrie.

Field: The largest portion of a rug, typically the center, surrounded by the border. The field may be solid or contain medallions or an overall pattern.

Foundation/Ground: The backing of the rug composed of the warp and weft (cross threads), often made of cotton, wool, or silk.

Fringe: An extension of the warp threads on two opposite sides of the rug. A fringe can also be attached to a finished rug to simulate this look.

Hand: The tactile aesthetic qualities of carpet and textiles; how it feels to the hand.

Hand-Hooked: Here, the yarn is pushed through a canvas cloth with a hooking needle to form a loop pile.

Hand-Knotted: Tying or knotting pile yarns around the woven backing fibers. The face of the rug is then sheared to a predetermined height to give the pile uniformity. The more knots per square foot the more valuable the rug.

Hand-Tufted: Using a tufting tool, yarns are forced through a backing material known as a “scrim”. This process forms a looped pile, and if left uncut the rug is referred to as “hand-hooked”. If the loops are sheared off to create a cut-pile look, it is referred to as hand-tufted.

Hand-Carved: The cutting, or carving, of lines or design patterns in a rug during the finishing process to create texture and dimension.

Heat Set: A stage in the yarn production process whereby two or more yarn fibers are twisted together and then heated to ensure the yarns remain joined. This process allows for greater design flexibility and retains its appearance over time.

Knots: The portion of the yarn that is knotted, to the backing material. In cut-pile, machine-made rugs, the knots are comprised of two points, so the face yarn is hooked into a “U” shape under the backing materials which, when finished, will form two points and one knot.

Loop Pile: A woven or tufted carpet construction having a pile surface consisting of uncut loops.

Medallion: The large, enclosed portion of a design, usually in the center of the rug field. Common shapes are octagons, hexagons and diamonds.

Pile: The visible surface of a rug, consisting of loop and/or cut yarn tufts. Also known as “face” or “nap”.

Pile Height: The height of face yarns from the backing to the tip of the piece of yarn.

Ply: Ply is a rug where one or more yarns are twisted together to form a larger piece of yarn. “Ply count” indicates the number of single pieces that have been twisted together; e.g. two-ply or three-ply.

Points: The tip end of a pile yarn. “Points” refers to the number of yarns that make up an area of rug. The more points per square meter the denser the construction, and the denser the construction, the more detail an area rug will have.

Polypropylene: A petroleum-based fiber, formed into yarns whereby pre-dyed polypropylene pellets are melted down and extruded into a continuous fiber.

Savonnerie: A popular French-designed area rug with a hand-knotted construction of pastel colors, and featuring a floral center medallion set on an open field, framed by broken borders. Many modern Indian and Persian rugs were inspired by this design style.

Side-woven: A machine-made woven carpet with a velvet pile. The rug is woven side-to-side rather than top to bottom. This process allows for a wide range of colors to be used, even up to 54 colors, in rugs manufactured by Sphinx. Another added benefit is the ability for the fringe to be incorporated in the rug.

Traditional: Modern-day representations of time-honored European and Asian designs, reminiscent of Oriental or Persian motifs.

Transitional: A design style blending contemporary with traditional designs. Sometimes referred to as casual, transitional designs tend to be more popular with people looking for a less formal take on the traditional design, to bring out the lines of their more modern furniture.

Tribal: Characterized by style elements common to a specific ethnic culture, these designs feature earth tones such as yellow, gold, red, and brown. Tribal designs combine these elements in very dynamic and structured designs.

Twist Level: The number of revolutions an individual yarn is spun around itself determines the twist level. A high twist level, or greater number or revolutions, allows the tuft to twist back on itself, and provides enhanced performance and longevity.

Warp: The parallel yarn strands that run vertically on a loom, and are often cotton, wool, or silk.

Washing: A chemical solution used after weaving to soften a rug’s colors and increase its luster. Sometimes referred to as “herbal wash”.

Weft: Yarns that are woven horizontally through the warp yarns, forming the face of the rug.

Wilton Loom: Automated looms popular for producing authentic Oriental rug designs. The Wilton loom is capable of making intricate designs in a variety of weights and colorations at a fraction of the time it takes to weave handmade rugs.

Wool: Prized for its luxurious feel and rich colors, wool has a natural ability to repel water and high durability, making it a great choice in rug construction, for the home.

Worsted: Worsted yarn is a fine smooth yarn spun from combed long-fiber wool. This process yields a very high-quality wool carpet.

A good quality rug will maintain its beauty over time, and is more resistant to spills, sunlight and heavy foot traffic, so, as well as for its initial appearance, it’s smart to choose a quality rug that will live with you and your family for years to come.

Area rugs make an impactful statement in a contemporary home, warming and defining the dining or living space. Our new Twilight Area Rug is a high-quality area rug with subtle patterns that blend beautifully with either traditional or modern furniture.

Discover a Star
To add some sparkle to a room, try the Starlight area rug. On its own, or over low-pile carpet it gives depth and dimension to a room, while still remaining quietly neutral. The added shimmer comes from the addition of Luxcelle plus fibers, giving it a wonderfully magical quality.

Weave in Some Whimsy
The Fourteen Area Rug by Dellarobbia has a playfully urban design in modern color schemes. Handcrafted from pure New Zealand wool, this round area rug is perfect shape to be the center of attention in your living space or home office.

Now, You’re Primed
The perfect rug can tie a room together, giving it focus and interest, not to mention buffering noise and warming your feet. Whatever style and look you are searching for to compliment your home, the design experts at Sklar can help you find the perfect rug.

They say that seven tenths of life is work, so why not make your home office as stylish and sophisticated as the rest of your home? A well-appointed home office can be both functional and fashion-forward, and the team at Sklar Furnishings can help you create an office that suits your personal style, so you’ll enjoy every hour you spend in it.

First, ask yourself what style you love the most. Are you a techie or a traditionalist? Do you prefer modern furniture, or a more ornate style? Or do you like a fusion of the two?

Once you’ve decided on your style, look at how you want your office to function. How much storage space do you need to keep your office clean and uncluttered? Are there items you want to display? How much desk space do you need? Do you have clients or collaborators come to your home? Do they need workstation space or comfortable meeting space, or both?

Work Your Magic
Because this is your space, there really are no fixed rules. Keep it calm and neutral or add pops of energizing colors. Use inviting textures or sleek, smooth steel and leather finishes. Choose compact desks to save space or make a big statement with a large, dramatic console.

From ergonomic office chairs, designer desks, storage consoles and shelving, Sklar sources modern office furniture from around the world to bring home your personal style, and make your home office beautifully well organized.

Our BDI line has some sleek new modern furniture that is both functional and fashionable. Our team of preeminent designers has created lines of home office furnishings that are always on trend and ahead of the curve.

Make it Mobile
Many of BDI’s new lines of office desks have retractable wheels so you can reconfigure your home office to suit more or fewer collaborators, or open up a space to create a comfortable client meeting area. For an elegant, contemporary work desk, the BDI Cascadia Console and Laptop Station shines, with sleek steel legs and a real wood surface. The full-length soft-closing storage drawer stores paperwork or laptops seamlessly, and retention slots keep unsightly wires out of sight. The Cascadia desk comes in six luxuriant wood stains from espresso to stained oak and white, to compliment any stylish office design.

Work Anywhere on a Bink
Move your laptop or tablet station from meeting room to poolside patio in a breeze with BDI’s Bink Mobile Media Table. With its curved, contoured lines, Bink is available in Mineral, Pepper, Salt or Cayenne – shades that will spice up any modern office space.

A Case for Reading
From artisan-inspired sawhorse bookshelves, colorful floating shelves or rich wood built-ins, Sklar has the perfect configuration to showcase your favorite books and collections. Or work with the expert Sklar furniture designers and carpenters to have a custom bookshelf made to your exact specifications.

Brilliant Idea
The right lighting can create an intimate corner, brighten up a room, or add drama and excitement. Layers of light – some high, some lower – can change the focus in a room, with the flick of a switch.

Sklar’s office lighting selections are nothing short of illuminating.
From streamlined tubular desk lamps to lightning bolt wall sculptures and Florentine teardrop chandeliers, our lighting fixtures can create functional workspaces and works of art alike. Whether you choose sleek, modern furniture or pieces with ornate pizzazz, have fun designing, and visit our Office Inspirations page for more ideas on making your workspace a true reflection of your personal style.

The term “luxury” is used frequently within the design industry, and especially so within the furnishings community. But what is luxury, or what qualifies as being luxurious? It’s a curiously subjective question, but one in which we each have our own personal definition. We thought we’d take a few minutes to discuss what luxury means to us at Sklar Furnishings.

Traditionally when something has been described as luxurious it is rare or an item that is difficult to obtain. We feel this is a contributing element for sure, but exclusivity alone is far too narrow a definition and clearly the boundaries of luxury need to extend beyond that.

Instead, we feel that at its most basic sense, luxury must be synonymous with quality. When you run your hand across a ceramic top of the Shoji Madia sideboard in your living room, or the smooth walnut wood frame on the Nelson bed you can understand how much attention to detail is placed on quality manufacturing. And to appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into the production and execution is really what begins to define a luxury. As we go a bit deeper, we consider elements that make up quality, such as the materials and the production techniques to achieve the end result. This includes the lengths manufactures go to source the best materials to bring their products to life. Full grain leather from the worlds leading tanneries so that the finished product has a supple, smooth and consistent texture and color, it’s easy to appreciate how much better the end product is when the best materials are used.

Design plays maybe the most significant role in our minds when thinking about how a luxury product is presented. Design can elevate an everyday object such as a sofa, from furniture into a piece of functional art. Even the best materials, or the most sophisticated manufacturing can’t overcome the importance of how design brings those various elements together. This presents an emotionally charged product – something that gets your heart beating just a little faster.

Most of all, a luxury product must feel special to the owner. It must speak to you on a personal level, and deliver more value than would typically be associated with the product. Many products can accomplish this, but when it comes to luxury furnishings, you interact with them on a far more personal level than say a watch, or a car. These are the beds you sleep on, the tables you eat at and share stories around, and the sectionals you gather your family on. And maybe that’s the most important measure of luxury: how much joy something brings you.

Oftentimes, our customers come to us looking to make updates or enhancements to their interior design style, or the layout of a room, but don’t always know where to start. Our interior design services program, staffed by trained interior designers and led by our Director of Design, is the perfect place to start.

We start by understanding the needs, desires and vision of our clients to appreciate what they’re looking to accomplish. For some, this is an easy process where they have a good idea of how they want to make changes, and we help them with selecting the right furnishings to achieve their vision. For others, they look to us to guide them through different options through discussion in our showroom, or even better as an in-home design consultation. We love working with our customers in the way that makes them most comfortable, and which would allow our team to achieve the best results.

So, when we consider the best ways to keep your home looking current and contemporary, we have put together our top 3 design tips for keeping your interior design up to date:

Sticking to neutral color palettes
This is often the best way to achieve flexibility of style within a room. By keeping the look neutral – leveraging whites, blacks, greys and beiges, we find that we can add in hits of color or styles that are a little more on-trend to give a visual update to a room, without changing large pieces such as sofas, sectionals, or dining tables and chairs, or media consoles.

Incorporating transformative furniture
This is a relatively old category that is benefiting greatly with the advent of technology in furniture. Even though drop leaf tables date back to the 16^th Century, we’ve been seeing this trend come right back to the forefront with furniture that changes shape to fit the functional needs of the user, but also to adapt to the style preferences too. A great example of this is the Ryker Sofa and Sectional by CDG. The back of the sofa raises and lowers allowing for a sensationally comfortable resting position with the back up, and a more sleek look with the back down – perfect for those with a view of the beach or golf course. This allows for two completely different looks!

Consider your large investments on a long-term time scale
While this is inherently something people do when they buy big ticket or large investment pieces for their home, it’s worth mentioning that the more you spend on an objet, furniture, artwork or rug, that you consider if the style, not just durability will stand the test of time. At Sklar Furnishings, we specialize in contemporary, modern, mid-century and classic styles from the USA, Europe and Canda, but we always consider timelessness a virtue of great design. While we carry more progressive designs, colors and styles, we believe great design ages gracefully so when you look to update your style, you’re able to accentuate with accessories, or wall paint to achieve your new look.

These are just a few of the ways that you can update your interior design style, and with the help of our design specialists and interior designers, you can achieve anything your heart desires.

A bedroom is a special place in a home, and when it comes time to designing your perfect vision of one, it’s important to consider all of the roles it must play; it’s not just form and function, but for a bedroom to be truly fabulous, it must do more for you. Our interior design services team love designing bedrooms because when they’re done to perfection, they’re truly remarkable features of a home. Just think about the times you take friends and family on a tour of your new or renovated home – which room did you show them last? More often than not, it’s the master bedroom. These rooms finish strong, and have a natural gravitas that can evoke an emotional response.

This is because at its core, a bedroom serves the most fundamental purpose of a dwelling; to provide shelter, warmth, and a safe place to sleep. Don’t get us wrong, we love living rooms and kitchens, but when we get to the core of it, a bedroom can make all the difference in your daily, and nightly life.

Here are some great things to consider when thinking about remodelling or refurnishing your master or guest bedroom.

Set Yourself up to Stay Organized

This is the most important advice we can offer: no matter the size, shape or layout of your master bedroom, ensure you have the appropriate types, and quantity of storage to suit your needs. With custom closet cabinetry widely available, you should never rely on just a dresser and closet to keep your wardrobe tucked away. The same advice is relevant for nightstands as well. While we always look to accessorize a room with a gorgeous nightstand like the Icon Dresser from Jesse, it is imperative that they are functional for your needs, and has a slight amount (or great amount, depending on how much you read) of storage incorporated into the design.

Ensure it is Tranquil

Once you have your organization and storage needs settled, the next thing you should think about, is how to bring a level of piece and tranquility to your space. Neutral, or slightly cool color tones have a wonderfully calming effect. Proper window coverings are also a must-have item. We love these wonderful Pirouette sheers from Hunter Douglas that provide privacy, but also let beautiful natural light shine through during the day. At night, you may wish to incorporate a more robust, blackout blind or shade to cut down on the ambient light for a perfect nights sleep.

Make it Comfortable

It’s impossible to have a perfect nights sleep without the right bed. We carry Magniflex mattresses because we personally love the quality and materials they use to provide a supremely soft, but supportive mattress. And to place a mattress such as that on top of a bed such as the Boiserie Bed by Conte, and you have a recipe for the ultimate nights sleep. And if you’re anything like us, having a padded, Nubuk leather covered rails and footboard on a bed means no more bruised shins as you try to cut too close to the side of the bed when making it. Trust us, this is a feature you don’t want to overlook.

Find a Great Statement Piece

And finally, you shouldn’t neglect having something completely eye-catching and inspiring in the bedroom. This can take the form of artwork, sculpture, a fantastic chaise, bench or sofa. Our personal favorite at the moment is the Faux Fox Cylinder from one of our amazing local vendors. After all, feeling inspired in a bedroom can lead to many great and beneficial outcomes.

By incorporating elements from the above into your design vision when the time comes to creating your own bedroom oasis, you’ll be in a great position to having that perfect end to your home tours, and the greatest possible feeling when your head finally hits the pillow.

Accessories have the ability to transform the look of a room, in similar ways that accessories accentuate and enhance the perfect outfit – they elevate the overall aesthetic while providing design cohesion and balance. Accents like side tables, poufs and mirrors give you the opportunity to balance out the flow of a room, while bringing in new opportunities for flair, color-matching and most importantly, fun! Interior design accessories allow for a great outlet not only for colors, but also patterns, themes, and textures too. Let your imagination soar, and your inspiration run wide on the smaller pieces. Accessories are low-risk design pieces that are easy to update or move throughout the home, as compared to the larger pieces that involve a lot of thought, investment and that might only be practical in one room of your home.

When it comes to accessorizing a home, there are some simple guidelines we love to consider which keep your spaces looking well crafted, considered, and uncluttered.

Create harmony – Harmony is a very important aspect in the art of accessorizing your home. The objects that you place together or create an arrangement with, should have something in common – the color, theme, shape, texture, pattern etc. There needs to be a unifying element to make the accessories work together. The Visitor Sculptures are a beautiful and creative example of creating harmony in the accessories.

Go abstract – Find the items that are fun and creative or let your imagination run wild with some abstract sculptures from the Alexander Krivosheiw collection at Sklar Furnishings. Alexander’s The First Kiss Maquette is a beautiful bronze piece that merges abstraction and representation. When you are considering bringing in some abstract accessories, make sure they make enough of a statement within the context of your room – a small object may have a powerful presence in a stark white powder room, but in a large space, think BIG!

Work with the palette of the room – What ever the color palette of your room is, make sure to follow the same when it comes to adding accents to the same room. The colors can be bold or subtle, but they should always work well with the other pieces of the room. If your room is painted in the hues of white, has white bedding, then adding these Quadrat Pillows would add the pop of color, while still being in harmony with the palette of the room.

Don’t limit to just sculptures and wall art – There is more to accessorizing than just using sculptures, wall arts and photo frames. Hopper Glass Bowl is a fun, colorful, and whimsical bowl that acts as a room accessory while serving its actual purpose of being a bowl. Similarly, our absolute favorite accessory category might just be pillows. Mix and match to your hearts content – pillows are fabulous ways to add a hit of drama to any space, and there are an unlimited variety of sizes and uses available. This past year, we added a substantial pillow section to the store, showcasing a vast array of options.

As you can tell, we absolutely love accessories at Sklar. Our interior design team are experts at coordinating new accessories into an existing space, or, when you remodel and outfit a room with new furnishings, we help you find those perfect way to complete the look. The art of accessorizing isn’t just fun for our clients, it’s fun for everyone involved to explore their imaginations, and different styles from around the world.

When the sunrays hit your skin, it creates a positive impact deep inside that has been shown to improve overall well being. After all, isn’t that why most of us love Florida in the first place? There’s something about the warmth that makes us feel that nothing else can. The warm air, the flowers, and the breeze all come together to ease away stress – especially next to the ocean or pool. This is why we’re such proponents of extending our living spaces outside. And even though it can be very hot this time of year, having a lovable, and functional outdoor space is a great option no matter the season.

Here are some tips to help make your outdoor spaces shine:

Seamless Transitions
Make your outdoor space as welcoming as your indoor space by matching the color palette and style of your interior and exterior spaces so they effortlessly blend into each another. Versatile furniture, such as the Diva Sofa which is an airy and elegant piece from COUTURE Jardin, works well both inside or out. The wicker sofa and chairs are made of weather resistant furniture and the cushions, made of Sunbrella fabrics, are comfortable and stylish.

 Provide Ample Shade
If your patio or yard furniture doesn’t have natural shading from palms, sitting or relaxing outdoors on hottest parts of the day isn’t much fun. Make arrangements for some weather resistant shade by using umbrellas, awnings or more permanent gazebos.

Splash of Color
Don’t limit your patio furniture and accents to natural tones of wood or black and white. Add a “have fun in the Florida sun” by adding color to your cushions and accent pieces. Or better yet, embrace a more adventurous and whimsical look by adding unique works of art such as the hand made blown glass Massai Woman Glass Art Garden Statue from Borowski.

 Light it Up, When the Sun Goes Down
Lighting is an important element of your indoor life and it is equally important outside. The right type of outdoor lighting will make your outdoor space as inviting as your living room. The Tawny Glass Table Lamp from Borowski is a colorful and creative piece to let your imagination run wild in the open air while providing a subtle glow.

Bridge your home’s interior and exterior spaces by creating a comfortable space that extends your indoor style to the outdoors. Sklar Furnishings offers a large collection of weather resistant outdoor furniture and accents in a vast range of materials and colors. Stay comfortable in the heat, and enjoy the outdoors this summer.
