Gemini Finds | Restoration Hardware French Casement Double-Door Cabinet

These charming cabinets/bookcases all have a distinct French farmhouse look that works well in a modern or vintage interior. They would look beautiful in a warm, modern, minimalist room like the setting for the Restoration Hardware cabinet, or of course they would also look at home with a traditional farmhouse or transitional style interior.

The most interesting design element of these cabinets or bookcases is that all 3 incorporate Cremone style hardware.

Gemini Finds | Bellacor Palliser Julien Round Marble Coffee Table

The Bellacor Julien table has both surface and base finish options. At 38” wide, this table is 8” wider than the 30” World Market Milan table.

The World Market table has 3 supports rather than 4, which I think, does provide a different look.

These are a versatile style of table that would look at home in a variety of decor settings from antique to modern. I also think they are an enduring style that you won’t grow tired of in a few years.

I admit I have a weakness for stone topped furniture. It’s heavier than wood, but a stone top is generally more durable when it comes to withstanding food smears and sticky drink rings - whether the juice-box variety or adult beverages. (What can I say, I have three boys.)

Also, a neutral marble top like this doesn’t compete with other wood colors. I have a mid-century limestone topped coffee table in my living room that I’ll never part with, and I’ve always appreciated how it doesn’t add one more wood tone to the room.
