Day 2 of Bridget Beari Highpoint Market Picks

Day 2 was just as busy at the Market! 

I love my linens and especially sateen coverlets - Dransfield Ross does not disappoint. Love the neutral colors. 

Geometric patterns on chests from Gabby Home. 

Gorgeous hides from Surya -tones of grey 

Grey again just like the inlay chests at Bennett Galleries

We had spent a long time at Lee Industries  - love these chaises

Vintage lights - brass LOVE! 

Great chaise - seating goes both ways! 

Fiezy Rugs for trellis shapes

                 A special treat at Sherrill 2nd floor for the Phoebe Howard collection. I loved the vingettes and the styling. Look at the nailhead trim walls …...

Love the mantel …...

Blue and white styling was everywhere. The front room was Gracie blue and white floral paper. 

Zentiques  - diffusers in flowers. I want these for a BBD item. 

Sunpan - acrylic bar stools

World's Away lights

An Italian entertainment unit

A new company for us - Emporium Home. I love these ottomans.

I want those mongolian lamb stools. 

Artesia mirror table

Barbara Cosgrove - love the orange pendants

and the gold over scaled floor lamp! 

Another cool company for our midcentury job - loved the sectional and the chairs! 

And of course our Mexican favorite Terracea. Beautiful building and 3 floors of wood furniture. 

This tree trunk table was perfect for one job. 

Palecek - did not disappoint with agate and drift wood tables. 

Isn't this cool  - silver tops! 

Petrified wood! I even liked the JAM pieces. Too bad we couldn't  stay to meet him. 

I even bought a few things in the Antique and Design District -  this mirror from Tracy Collins from Charleston,  a alligator bracelet, 2 sconces which we have plans for, and Nancy Price - glass vases - gorgeous. 

Hickory Chair  - I loved the table in the new gold bottom and cream top 

Did I mention Candice Olsen was staying at our hotel? I wonder if she had this lovely note on her headboard  - well thank go they are clean! 

Until next Spring……

Happy Shopping…….

Bridget Beari Picks from Highpoint Fall Market!

This market was full of parties and purchases! The most exciting event was the Verellen party for the launch of the new magazine Milieu. The party was so beautiful, almost like a wedding. A white tent filled with tables, hay bails covered with linens, bon fires and candles  - gorgeous! Just what we would expect from Verellen - beautiful people and beautiful furniture. I saved all my cocktail drinking until then - a very nice bubbly Moscato. 

The invitation: 

The tables and the tent

The doors to the showroom - notice the fires lining the entrance

Cheers! 

The new Interiors Magazine from Texas! Thanks for letting Bridget Beari Designs be apart of the grand unveiling! 

Of course we did a little shopping at Verellen and the antique Bali store - Look at these fabulous finds! 

Melissa lounging as you should on a Verellen sofa or were we dreaming of our own Bridget Beari Store and what it would look like?????

Outside under the tent! 

Did I mention the food - yum! Look at these crudities in individual glasses. 

Loved the batik fabric hanging as a backdrop. It must be a Romo fabric. 

During the day we saw some exciting finds at Julian Chichester - these end tables

We met the Keno Brothers and Earl Spencer at Theodore Alexander

Always beautiful things at Oly Studio: 

E.J. Victor's - Ralph Lauren room. I loved this sectional! 

Bennett Galleries - these inlay chests are amazing! 

We loved running into our Richmond friends - Gary Inman and JB Elko at Moore Council where they were debuting their new furniture line. 

All named after Hollywood stars - love the nail head treatment on this chest and the green color. Soft greens and nailhead pieces were abundant at this Market.

                                 His new logo! Way to go Richmonders!

Across the street to Halo Styles - I loved the island. 

These stone fish were so cool! They were all sold out as soon as we arrived. 

We did a lot of rug shopping for one client but found some great bargains at Loloi. Check out these outdoor rug - yes outdoor! 

                                                  Outdoor shag!  - who knew!

The grays and taupes were perfect and so reasonably priced. 

I love colorful books - this was a great source. 

A stop into Arteriors and low and behold there was Barry Dixon talking about his new pieces. 

I always remember his colored water vases and here he has turned them into a lamp! 

He talked about being inspired by the animals and textured on his farm. i.e. his goat leg table. 

Our goal was to check out new places so this was our first time to Curate. 

Brass etageres

More nailhead pieces

Interesting chair

Whew! - we were so tired that first day we needed to hitch a ride on a rickshaw. 

Check out more finds from Market on tomorrow blog. 

Happy Shopping ………
