True Blue Trovare

Soothing as the sky on a mid May morning, a wave of blue has washed over Trovare Home.  From cobalt to cerulean, periwinkle to peacock, stop in soon, before owner Pam Frisoli is on to the next big thing.

Printed on shimmering silk, the azure of these antique Indian equestrian panels is picked up by a gathering of ostrich eggs.  Curry red lacquer frames and glazed porcelain lamps add spice.  The console table seems at once modern and classic.

Cobalt glazed lamps watch over a pair of vintage club chairs.  We are huge fans of Pam’s spot on fabric choices.  This faded powder blue floral is a perfect example: unexpected and perfectly at ease.

Trovare Home is first in Fairfield to carry Ralo’s line of classic chic pillows.  Richly shaded, we were drawn to the deep navy ground seen in this floral that seems pulled from some fantastic porcelain service.

Modern motifs share a similar Asian vibe.  This pattern was inspired by monastic robes, and is woven in a pure cornflower that seems especially fresh.

So do the new striped awnings that Pam had installed on the storefront.  Like all things Trovare they are just the beginning.  Stop in and see for yourself, and tell them Scout sent you.

Lavender, Lime & Tonic

A gallery opening, with a title that seems conjured from a vintage cocktail shaker: count us in.  Join the inimitable mother daughter duo Sandy and Laird, at SM Home this Thursday, to mix it all up for a great cause.

The May art show features the work of Connecticut artist Penny Putnam.  Her mixed media compositions collage paper elements treated with an array of pigment washes and runs, are mounted on canvas.  The group of over 20 works, a timely celebration, captures the elusive glories of Springtime.  SM Home will honor Mother’s Day, donating a portion of sales generated at the opening to the Breast Cancer Alliance.
