Sale Alert: Viva Terra's Fall Furniture Sale
From now until Sept. 30, save up to 25 percent on eco retailer Viva Terra's furniture line. My all-time favorite, the Gustavian Bed Frame, is part of the sale, and I'm having a hard time resisting its gorgeous shape and reclaimed wood frame.
Steal of the Day: Viva Terra Tansu Storage Chest
While Asian interior design is too specific for my aesthetic, I've always loved Tansu chests, traditional Japanese chests handcrafted from fine woods, often with elaborate metal hardware. I've been on the hunt for a Tansu for years that is discreet enough to blend with both my modern and Eastern furnishings, and I think I've found it. The Viva Terra Tansu Storage Chest ($423-807, reduced from $489-949) has absolutely stunning, serif-like, C-shaped handles, and its plantation-grown kiri wood is very subdued.
Steal of the Day: Railroad Tie Dining Table and Chairs
A dining table is a big investment. So why pay full price when you can swoop up a gorgeous one at 30 percent off? Made from reclaimed railroad tie wood with a sturdy, waxed metal frame, the Viva Terra Railroad Tie Dining Table and Chairs ($278-1,468) is a beautiful set for a casual, rustic home, or an eat-in kitchen if you have a separate dining room.
Steal of the Day: Viva Terra Bark Candlesticks
The tree-branch trend may be giving way to birch and other motifs, but I still appreciate a lovely tree-inspired accent. Especially one that's sleek and metallic rather than brown and burly; even better if it's on sale.
If you're knot ready to give up the tree trend just yet, snap up these Viva Terra Recycled Aluminum Bark Candlesticks ($89, marked down from $179).
Steal of the Day: Viva Terra Porcelain Branch Teapot
Even if you're a coffee person, the Viva Terra Porcelain Branch Teapot ($34, reduced from $69) is so woodsy and whimsically beautiful, I'd endorse using it just for decoration. Or, you can cut the stems of your favorite bouquet short, and fill it for a fresh, Spring-y centerpiece. It's true, the cream and sugar set is sold out, but I think the Michael Aram Twig Sugar and Creamer Set ($40) would work marvelously with it.

This VivaTerra Railroad Tie Dining Table ($949 for the table; $298 for two chairs) has an elegant, rustic quality that would look great in both traditional and modern dining rooms. But it's cool design is eclipsed by the cool materials used to make it: The wood is actually from reclaimed railroad ties, made out of teak, pine, and other hardwood. VivaTerra has even preserved the weathered look and filled the railroad-track holes with wood.

Crave Worthy: Gustavian Bed
I've been coveting this Gustavian Bed ($1995 for a queen frame) for months now. Its combination of simplicity, elegance, and sturdy craftsmanship makes it seem like the perfect compromise for a couple who are looking for a classical gender-neutral bed. According to VivaTerra's description, this bed was inspired by Sweden's King Gustav's visit to France about 250 years ago.
