Vintage Industrial Iron Bowls

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Visit our on-line store at HudsonGoods.com.

Vintage industrial iron bowls are hard to find. And if you can uncover one that is old and rusted all the better! I don’t know about you but I am over the wood bowl on the coffee table routine, way too Pottery Barn.

I’m not sure what these industrial bowls were used for but I think they would look great in the home, on a coffee table of course. Rusted iron has great texture and mixes things up, particularly on a wood table. You can put cool things in these bowls but I think they are better off just left alone. And please, put the rustoleum away!

Shell Chandelier

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Visit our on-line store at HudsonGoods.com.

It all started with a rock. No, you’re not at the beach. But this is one big rock and those are real barnacles. Who would have thought to make a chandelier out of barnacles?

Not everything has to look like it came out of a Pottery Barn catalog. This chandelier is unique made out of barnacles and shells. It would look great in a bathroom or a beach style indoor porch off the back of your home. So next time you go to pick out a chandelier for your home, think outside the box, or should I say outside the rock!

Industrial Metal Lighting

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Visit our on-line store at HudsonGoods.com.

Industrial metal lighting has a look all its own. You can’t mistake it for those lamps that used to sit on each side of your mother’s sofa. And there is definitely no plastic wrap on these industrial lamp shades.

The shape of these metal lamps is unique because they served a purpose. They were meant to work. Their long necks were meant to stretch over work areas and they rotated sideways, up or down, any which way you moved. There were no 3 way soft light bulbs either. Industrial lighting was there to do just that, provide ample light for you to do your work.

Now we appreciate the hard work these industrial lights put in and the hard natural materials they were made from. Heavy iron and metal now worn to their natural patina. Enjoy the photos, the future is bright!

Wood Desk and Industrial Lamp

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

Visit our on-line store at HudsonGoods.com.

It doesn’t have to be antique to be good. Sometimes a reproduction can look just as old but function as new. This vintage style wood desk has cool angled drawers, small cubby holes and a great wood finish.

And what would a wood desk be without a hard working industrial lamp. Made of solid metal, it also looks vintage but functions as new. So put them both to work and get reading or writing. Wait, does anyone do that anymore?

Swedish Wood Bench

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

Click HERE to visit our on-line store at HudsonGoods.com

This Swedish bench has all the right ingredients, solid wood, distressed paint and burlap upholstery. Made during the Gustavian period, circa 1790, this is Sweden’s version of a farmhouse bench or sofa.

This bench has detailed wood carvings throughout and I am crazy about the original paint that is now distressed from years of family service. It’s one big sofa that’s been reupholstered in good old burlap to maintain that vintage feel and all natural style. Now add one tall Swedish Gustavian clock and you’ve got real style circa 2009.
