Pamela's Posh Picks: Red, White and Blue…Chandeliers!

Aug 03 2012 · 0 comments · Posh Picks ·0

Like so many Americans, this week I’ve been riveted to the television and social media poring over events and updates from the Summer Olympic Games in London. Team USA has been doing a wonderful job competing and showing outstanding sportsmanship. In honor of our athletes I thought today’s Posh Picks should revolve around the patriotic color palette of RED, WHITE and BLUE!

During Blogfest back in May, I had the opportunity to visit the then in-progress brand new Baccarat showroom in New York City. Baccarat is a 200 year old company known for it’s unrivaled imagination, meticulous craftsmanship and notable creativity as the world’s leading creator of luxury crystal. This week I’m sharing my favorite RED, WHITE, and BLUE Baccarat chandeliers (yes, chandeliers are an obsession of mine! Shhh, it’s a secret!).

First up, RED:

If you look closely you’ll see Baccarat’s signature RED crystal. Every Baccarat chandelier has one.

This pale pink and RED Flou Je Te Vois Flou Zenith chandelier is an evolved design with a whimsical twist.

How about this stunning WHITE shaded chandelier, the Ellipse?

It’s traditional yet perfectly brilliant in every light. I love how the NYC skyline backdrop enhances the overall look.

Here’s a closer look at some of the details:

And yes, Baccarat does create a deep, rich royal cobalt BLUE crystal.

Called the Zenith Midnight chandelier, isn’t it grand?

I love the lampshades in denim, tres modern!

The day we visited the showroom, I just happened to be wearing a USA-blue dress.

I’m sorry to say, I think my lanyard and ID badge may be the closest I’ll get to having an Olympic medal! In the meantime, you can’t deny the brilliance of these amazing crystal Baccarat chandeliers ~ or our Olympians!

Finally, this week’s petite oil painting is actually a larger mixed-media work of mine. I couldn’t resist showing it though as it fits the Red, White and Blue theme:
