Covet: Cold Mountain Vases at Michelle Willey

I went back to Michelle Willey today to buy one of the striped summer scarves I posted about earlier this week. There were only five left, well four now. And I’m  still admiring these Cold Mountain porcelain vases. They have a wonderful matte finish, smooth, with textural ridges. The design was inspired by the reclusive Tang Dynasty poet Han Shan, who was known for his eccentric simplicity and love of nature.

Covet: Gamut Scarves at Michelle Willey


These scarves at Michelle Willey are as light as air and so, so pretty. They’re made from silk and cotton, and cost $98. The colors are lovely and the weave quite delicate. I also love the earthy, stringy fringe. I may have to go back and pick one out for myself. It’s actually worth a trip over there; Michelle has expanded.
