CLEAR JEWEL TONES

Isn't this seating area by Tony Duquette and Hutton Wilkinson simply lovely? This is the sort of color palette I tend to think of as "nature-true" - Wilkinson calls it "clear jewel tones." You would certainly find this combination of blue and petal pink in a sunset-on-sea, wouldn't you? I've had Tony Duquette on my mind lately; he inspired a little Christmas project I'm working on, and now I seem to see him and his fabulous designs everywhere. I'll be sharing the project results shortly, but in the meantime, enjoy some Duquette via Lonny, September 2012. Be sure to click through to Lonny to enjoy the entire spread on Duquette's fabled home, Dawnridge.

Happy Weekend!
