linda boyd What are the proportions of ebony and gray stains in the custom color? I have even planning to use a higher gloss finish because I am afraid that the gray color may tend to look drab. We have just stained my newly laid white oak kitchen floors for what is to be my new gray and white kitchen with a 1/3 gray 2/3 ebony combo and it is pretty but not gray. Contractor is willing to correct, but I prefer not to sand new floor again. Please advise me so I can advise him. Thank you, thank you. LRCB

jamesthomas, LLC It was been a few years since this project so my apologies but I can't remember the percentage of ebony/gray. The combo you describe above is heavy on the ebony. I would recommend doing 1/4 ebony and 3/4 gray. But please have your contractor do test samples in-field. That is a must. So you can approve before he does the whole floor!

jamesthomas, LLC Hi there. The pillow fabric is from Pollack. Thank you.

jamesthomas, LLC Greetings. The railings were done by Gentner Fabrication in Chicago.

jamesthomas, LLC Greetings! Thank you so much. The wine room chairs are not just the corner pieces from a sectional. The chairs were custom made. Pattern fabric is from Old World Weavers (Malawi/Smoke) and the solid fabric is from Robert Scott (Mitos/Storm).

Urban Cabin Several companies make 'salon chairs' check out Bernhardt interiors. A one arm chair that is part of a sectional collection would not be finished as well as an actual salon chair, as it is meant to be joined to, or partially covered by, another piece...
