ABOUT THE LOOK.

In this latest concept board, we show how moody neutrals and a blend of classic and contemporary pieces can create a rich, modern Victorian look.

To start this look, we selected this stunning Maitland-Smith 18th-century-inspired mirror. With ornate scroll detailing and a soft black and silver finish, this oversized wall mirror makes a striking statement above a fireplace mantel or anchoring an entryway. We’ve paired it with a vintage-inspired pendant light featuring antique brass accents and a faceted white shade—an elegant balance of classic style and modern refinement.

To add contrast, we chose an Art Deco-inspired hurricane candleholder with alabaster and bronze detailing. The bold striped pattern plays beautifully against the ornate mirror and echoes the geometric lines of the pendant light, creating a cohesive look.

For warmth and a grounded feel, we included two earthy vase options. Their natural hues and textured finishes bring an organic element that keeps the design approachable and livable.

Lastly, we’ve selected this timeless genuine leather chair. With its nailhead detailing, rolled arm silhouette, and rich patina, this piece offers classic style and lasting quality for a living room or office. Pair it with the rug-pattern pillow linked below for a vintage-inspired, collected feel that ties the whole look together.
