This scene illustrates how a carefully choreographed cluster of accent items can evoke a feeling or make a statement. The anchor is a particularly special piece—an antique chest. Although it might take some time to track down something with such a unique look, the effort is undoubtedly worth it. Several similar-sized ceramic pots add texture as does the carved wooden backdrop; the craftsmanship feels indigineous to the islands. In a home's entryway, here's an entirely welcoming vignette.
