Now that Father’s Day is past it seems that summer just rolls right in! How to capture that relaxed, beachy look of the season? Here are a few items from Ghent Antiques that just say summer to me!
Sea Shell, light blue dish/platter by local Norfolk potter Steve Cook $125
Turbulence– Koi fish oil on canvas painting by local American artist-J.C. Cooper, Portsmouth, VA $4600
Hand painted, multi colored, antique Oyster plate-Union Porcelain (circa 1879).
This one is also part of a hand painted Oyster plate set. Call for pricing.
To complete the beachy look try adding rugs, pillows and throws: (Photo: Our Boat House)
Crisp white and beautiful blues, especially stripes say nautical!
Sea themed accents with splashes of bold color such as tangerine.
Colorful rugs on a porch hide the sand that guests carry in with them.
Weather resistant furniture: rattan, wicker and bamboo pieces all say easy living!
