Style Display
Create a shelf still life by artfully mingling books, small-scale framed art, and decorative objects like these vintage candle holders and ceramic pieces. Pro tip: Keep heavier items on lower shelves for visual balance.
Leather Accents
- Nahla Saddle Leather Bar Stools; from $379; acacia and leather
Nothing says rustic like materials that age. The woven leather seat of this bar stool by Ayush Kasliwal patinas over time.
Copper Accessories
- Rustic Copper Tray; $40; powder-coated iron
Metallic colors like copper and gold add warmth and character to your tabletop. (We love the small touches of copper hardware, too.)
Terra Cotta Wares
- Saratoga Rustic Pottery Table Lamp Base; from $160
Consider ceramics for more than just the dining room table. These terra cotta clay lamp bases add warmth and rustic style to any room.
All the Woods
Like varying hues of a color palette, multiple wood grains in the same space can work beautifully together. Here, clean lines of wood-paneled walls and cabinetry serve as backdrop for the live-edge dining table.
Bathroom Boost
- Wooden Bath Cast; $128; mahogany
Like live-edge wood cutting boards add character to the kitchen, this live-edge wood bath caddy adds intrigue to the bathroom. This piece is handcrafted in Bali using age-old carving techniques.
Woven Utility
Storage doesn't need to be behind closed doors when you have beautiful hand-woven baskets to keep necessities out in the open—and within arm's reach.
Attention to Detail
- Mercantile Knob; $10 each; wood and iron
Even modern homes can take on a rustic look with simple change-outs in hardware. These knobs by fourth-generation maker Aron Fischer pair wood with iron making a pull a work of art.
Into the Woods
The ultimate in rustic style is a cabin in the woods. We love this makeover in Southern California that turned a rundown 1963 A-frame into a weekend retreat of dreams.
