bizarre names like BRA and FARRT.
It is a well known fact that Italian antiques are as rarer than Dodo boas and about the same price. The alternatives are having bespoke antique-style pieces
made and distressed to measure or buying perfectly acceptable ready-made stilo polvero which are well made and relatively inexpensive. A few rustic pieces
really add charm to any old world style house without making the Swedish stuff look out of place too much. An ancient and modern look is very appealing.
Outdoor furniture is so important in Italy because the weather permits and encourages the al fresco life. Le Marche is the home of rattan furniture in Italy
so it is possible to pick up some real bargains from the factory shops and other outlets. Technology has also allowed manufacturers to make classic rattan
pieces in synthetic materials which look just as stylish and last longer.
Skilled blacksmiths in Italy have forged light and stylish furniture from battuto ferro for centuries. Iron and glass create the impression of elegance and
strength together. Such furniture looks great inside and out.
Needless to say the classic,sleek clean lines of Milanese design and the flourish of Baroque look especially effective at home in Italy. This is very much
contemporary Italian taste and is widely available. The informal furniture from the Far East also lends itself well to the mellow atmosphere of chestnut and
terracotta. In fact, I can hear my soft Balinese day-bed calling me over for a siesta...
