Those Limited Editions..


We often hear about the term "Limited Editions", which means only few pieces are available for a limited period of time. Well, definitely there is something special about them & probably that's why they are so called limited.

I just can't take my eyes of some of these limited edition items by Boca do Lobo. Its a Portuguese based company manufacturing exclusive furniture pieces. Here are some of my favorites.

 
Wondering what is this? 
This is a heritage sideboard. In the different layers you will find different tiles paintings inspired in different periods of Portuguese history taken from different historic buildings like convents or old colleges. The interior comprises of gold leaf which makes you remember the historical buildings.


 Pixel Cabinet
There are 1088 triangles that complete this piece, with a diversity of combined finishes like never before – silver leaf, gold leaf, lacquering, and 10 different types of wood leaf. 



  Diamond Sideboard
Inspired by the Gothic furniture of the Romantic period, this sideboard features two highly sculptured doors leading to a gold leaf interior with shelving & two drawers. I liked the luxurious shade of translucent amethyst  high gloss varnish. So fancy! 


This is a magnificent piece of art! I have never seen reflections being used as an art in mirror. I think I am now done with those constellations/sun burst mirrors!
Venice Mirror



Few more of my favorites...


Now, this last one is definitely a dream!
Crochet Chest
As the name denotes, this sensational piece was inspired by the traditional craft of crochet. The method of crocheting was reinterpreted in this piece through the forging of 60kg of classic brass pulls by a local jeweler resulting in a mesh which adorns the sinuous silhouette of the piece. 

Ahh well, I can just say "Truly an exquisite & enchanting  pieces with marvelous craftsmanship".
