 Nautically Speaking
If you want to instill tradition, or your interior tastes run to navy blue,
white and varnished teak, you can enhance the theme by displaying these
beautiful Czech-made pieces from Artel depicting schooners and Big Class racers
in full sail in a series called "The Golden Age of Yachting." Decorative objects
aboard yachts usually take rather large artistic license, but these look like
they could have been pulled off a Rosenfeld photo. Artel’s glassware is hand
blown by Bohemian artisans and each design is individually etched.

Consider the difference these two Manheim-Ruseau styles would make to the
basic beige salon. For those following European traditions, the walnut "Corbe"
console tables feature a hand-rubbed finish and carved cabriolet legs. Contrast
these with the "Wayfarer" side tables that hint at Directoire formality but in a
clean and simple form. Manheim-Ruseau is a third generation American maker of
handcrafted furniture with an archival catalogue of some 2,500 pieces
encompassing art deco, English, French and Italian styles. www.manheimruseau.com (Click images to enlarge)  Release Me
For a small salon that must do double duty, or for updating the aft deck,
Release Marine, the well-known manufacturer of custom fighting chairs, recently
expanded its custom table division. Exquisitely crafted, intricately engineered
and exclusively built to order, Release tables feature adjustments for multiple
heights, multiple leaves and clever hidden storage beneath beautiful tops that
showcase the joiners’ artistry with inlays. www.releasemarine.com (Click image to enlarge)
