We just had our first cold front of Fall pass through yesterday. It did not get incredibly cold, but the air was very wet and uncomfortable. As I was getting pelted by rain, I immediately thought of how nice it would be to be in a warmer place like Florida, the Virgin Islands or Mexico. Well if you do have a trip planned as a break from the colder weather, hopefully you will get to sit on some great wicker furniture and relax on the porch under a nice ceiling fan. Pictured here is the Key West collection from Yesteryear wicker furniture. This is your classic white outdoor look with designer cushions to set the seating just right. Get that iced tea ready and bring a good book!


I knew that this was the type of picture that tells a story. Here is an amazing jacuzzi bath tub available at Jacuzzi.com. This bathroom gem, called the Morphosis Alpha, was created by the design house Pininfarina. The design for this bathtub was influenced by nature and symmetry as evidenced by the sweeping arch overhead and the flowing grace in the overall visual appeal. This tub features digital controls, Illumatherapy lighting, Wave Pulse bath control, TheraPro jets, Chromatherapy lights and eight back massage jets. Price: $17,775

Here is a very simple platform bed available from Zoe furniture. If you enjoy a minimalist look, then this may be the right bed for you. I like this bed as I think it is quite functional. Colors could easily be added in the form of pillows, shams, or a comforter to add to the ambiance of your bedroom. Most of all, I think the price is in a reasonable range. Shown in walnut, this ensemble is also available in cherry and wenge veneers. Price: $711

If you are building or renovating an existing bathroom, here is your chance to do it up in style. Kohler has the ultimate in bathroom accessories from faucets, and showers to the simple stuff like towel holders and toilet seats. Of course the bathroom in many homes is one of the most highly used rooms so adding some creature comforts is well worth the expense. Kohler offers some very unique products and cutting edge designs from pewter, to brass, and French provincial to ultra modern. They also do bathroom furniture and mirrored cabinets in a variety of styles and wood finishes.

It seems that most of the Italian furniture we review here at Fashion Furniture is cutting edge modern just because they do it so well, and we love the look. So I have to go back to the roots and show you the wares of Decorative Crafts. The intricate wood inlays and fine attention to detail of this traditional table is the work of fine master Italian artisans and just a sample of their offerings. Decorative Crafts is one of the few companies still importing a sizable collection of traditional Italian furniture, and they also have a line specializing in hand crafted Oriental furniture and award winning lighting.
