Smooth Copper Top with Rustic Iron Base




I like the clean copper top in a dark finish as opposed to the hammered look. It's obviously cleaner but it also has elegance and sophistication. The flower base is a rustic rust finish made from iron.
The top measures 36" round.
Cost is $9500 pesos.
We made this one custom to a clients specs. Ask us and we can make one for you in any size or design.

THINGS THAT CATCH MY EYE. Accidental Art

This is an old building in Catemaco,Veracruz. What caught my eye about this structure is the colage of panels and colors. I can see this structure standing in a clean white well lit museum. This is accidental art. Another example of accidental art. Did they know when they put the bananas on the red tablele and that they would create a colorful composition? The blue/green walls, the white iron, the red table and the natural yellow bananas create a play with tropical colors.
Molded cement cast brick is used all over the coastal towns of Mexico to divide spaces. I like how clean and white the bricks are painted.

Lanterns and More Lanterns


I love the Jasmine Spa and La Pila Lavanderia building. It's all about the lanterns. Birdcage style iron lanterns are lined up in pairs and centered by an old larger farolito. At one time the center lamp must have had glass.
