Mercury Love

Happy shiny Monday! I want to talk mercury today - some call it vintage or aged glass. There is a romantic quality about a mercury finish that really speaks to me. I especially love them in votive candle holders, as they cast the most amazing glow. I've rounded up a few other pieces in the same finish that I really like.

I also love that they can fit very nicely into all design styles, they have that old world quality that never goes out of style. A little bit goes a long way with these.

The use of an industrial shaped light with a mercury finish is a wonderful mix.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
