Decorative figurines: The final touch to interior design
Decorative objects and figurines are the soul of a home; they are the elements that tell the story of its inhabitants. More than just filling shelves, these pieces act as focal points that draw the eye and break the visual monotony. From the solidity of a cement candlestick to the delicacy of a blown-glass vase, every texture and shape contributes to the overall atmosphere. Our collection encompasses sculptural objects ranging from the purely ornamental to the functional, such as wooden trays or designer bookends, allowing you to curate decorative still lifes on coffee tables, consoles, and bookshelves that reflect exquisite and contemporary taste.
Types of decorative objects
| Category | Materials and Finishes | Aesthetic Function |
|---|---|---|
| Candlesticks and Candle Holders | Resin, architectural cement, wrought iron or textured glass. | They provide verticality and warm lighting, essential for dinners or relaxation corners. |
| Trays and Bowls | Carved mango wood, glazed ceramic, marble, or natural fibers. | They visually organize small objects (keys, jewelry) in hallways and on side tables. |
| Abstract Sculptures | Papier-mâché, bent metal, sandstone, or organic wood. | Accessible art pieces that add cultural sophistication to shelves and niches. |
| Functional Objects | Heavy bookends, hourglasses, decorative inlaid boxes. | They combine utility and beauty, keeping offices and reading areas tidy. |
Advantages of curating the details
- Instant customization: They are the fastest and most economical way to update the style of a room without changing the main furniture.
- Play of textures: They allow the introduction of contrasting materials (cold of metal vs. warmth of wood) to enrich the sensory experience.
- Visual balance: They help fill gaps in shelves or balance the visual weight of a large coffee table.
- Versatility: As they are movable pieces, you can rotate them between different rooms to refresh the decor periodically.
Decorative styling tips
The golden rule in decorating with objects is grouping. Avoid scattering small pieces throughout the room; instead, create sets of three items with different heights and volumes (the rule of odds). For example, combine a horizontal tray, a vertical vase, and a small sculptural object. Mix matte and glossy finishes to create depth. On shelves, alternate books with decorative figurines to allow for visual breathing room and prevent the space from feeling cluttered.
Frequently asked questions about decorative figures
-
How to clean figures made of porous materials such as cement or papier-mâché?
Use a duster or a soft, dry brush. Avoid water and chemicals that could stain or damage the surface.
-
What items are currently trending?
Imperfect organic forms ("wabi-sabi"), textured handcrafted ceramics, and untreated natural wood objects are booming.
-
Are decorative trays functional?
Yes, they are excellent organizational tools. A tray visually groups clutter (remote controls, coasters), making it look intentional.
-
Where to place large sculptures?
Larger pieces look best on the floor if they are tall, on dedicated pedestals, or in the center of a large dining table.
