If you told me the words lace, sideboard, white, floral, lacquer, and modern could exist all in one breath, I wouldn't believe you — and I'd likely chastise you for being a tease. But impressively, those adjectives do exist all together . . . in the Jethro Macey Sideboard ($8,000 and up). The white sideboard has a lacquered surface and its doors shine with a textured rose pattern that emulates antique lace. I love how the masculine quality of its clean lines and mid-century-style legs are juxtaposed with the femininity of the rose pattern. It's subtly stunning, and would make killer storage for a modern bedroom, living room, or dining room. Macey also sells concrete lace tiles with the same repeating decorative rose pattern that's a really innovative style of surface design. To see the tiles, read more.
Beautiful, right? Read more about the Lace Tiles here.
i have this fear that a white sideboard would be a bit too retro looking, but with the lace detail on it, i think that it really does an ok job. you've seen the shiny ones that were popular back in the day (like in my grandma's house) and i don't know why - but that's just how my mind figures.
