Venetian glass valences, a 19th-century English porter's chair flanked by a pair of 1950's chairs make this East Side townhouse ultra chic.
Solid marble in shades of grey and green are carefully arranged into patterns to create old-world elegance in this guest bathroom.

love the sinks!
God I'm drooling over both those images! Thanks!
Blue Orchid--I really like the sinks as well--they're authentically retro.
Thanks, Suzy! I'm partial to the East Side townhouse, because I've never seen Venetian Glass quite like that.
Suzy - that bathroom is so original - nice to see something so totally fresh.
Amazing images. Those valances are gorgeous, and the bathroom sublime!
Nice to hear from you, Mrs. Blandings and Katie :)
(gasp) lovely
Great post! Those sinks make me smile...they are the same color as the sinks that I grew up with in the 70s/80s!
I agree, luxury is in the details. It is the details that takes something from the mundane to the sublime!
Thanks, Things that Inspire--and I know what you mean about the sinks--who knew avocado could be so chic?
that bathroom is so gorgeous i didn't even NOTICE that the sinks were avocado. beautiful spaces!
Thanks for stopping by, coco+kelley--love it that you didn't notice the avocado sinks--although that all that stunning marble really takes centre stage.
Wow... the way they split the marble to create a mirrored pattern and integrated the dark metal fixtures and avacado sinks... simply gorgeous! I think *this* would be my dream bathroom.
You know, I know I should probably like that 2nd design...but I don't, I'm afraid. And I'm not completely sure why. Maybe there's too much of a mix for me. I would have preferred it if much more of the background had fewer etchings on it. For me, it's been overdone.
take care...
James -- thank you for your honest comment -- think the reason why I love it so is the amazing accuracy with the reflection of the marble, and the very fact that it is marble ...
