A New Rosette

                          Efex Nordic Collection

As creatives we all love new styles and designs. Please welcome our new spring flower. R8, a simple, small and elegant rosette.

Maybe because it’s starting to be spring that is what this little rosette reminds me of. Measuring only 1.75” in diameter it’s a simple appliqué that works well on table legs and in small corners. Retail price is $5.00.

New Rosette R8

It’s very similar to the rosette on this extraordinary Gustavian bench. You can see from this lovely antique that small and simple can have a major impact on style.Swedish Bench

 

Of course any of you who read this blog know I am head over heels in love with all designs from Scandinavia, so it should come as no surprise that this rosette is also part of our new Nordic collection.

This little flower can also be used for a multiple of styles. You could combine it with swags for a more french style, or paint it in bright colors for a fun boho look.

As an aside, we are often asked how we find our originals to make into Efex. This new rosette is one we already had in our extensive historic collection. When we were in New Zealand this spring we decided to add a series of new pieces that we already had masters for.

Remastering molds

Some times I find our new styles from shopping with my favorite girl friends and often my BFF’s find special pieces that they send to me hoping they will become Efex. That is how we got the escutcheons E4, 6 and 7.  When we get new originals they usually need to go though the long and very very tedious process of remastering. So in our factory we always have many styles in different stages of production.  Yes you have seen some of these on our Instagram feed.

We actually brought home, 8 new styles from New Zealand so that means stay tuned there are more styles in progress.
