New Red LSA Glassware on Sale Now

Saturday, May 1st, 2010
New LSA glassware pieces in striking red finish

New LSA glassware pieces in striking red finish

Traditionally, glassware has often been limited to clear pieces that coordinate with most styles and colour schemes due to their neutral, generic design.  Clear glass vases, bowls and decorative accessories do indeed look chic and classy but there is so much more to consider… 

LSA has been responsible for introducing a number of collections featuring stunning coloured glassware in many different shades such as lilac, black, lime green and the increasingly popular turquoise – one of the colours that is grabbing a great deal of attention at the moment.

One particular colour of glassware that will certainly make a real statement and give your home a modern, contemporary feel is red – perfect with purples and berry tones to create a feeling of luxury and indulgence.  We have just introduced some of the very finest LSA glassware in this vibrant, bright colour including the extremely stylish LSA Basis Jug, which has a clear glass handle and base to complete what is a very attractive and useful product for the kitchen or dining room.

Why not complement the Basis Jug with a set of LSA Asher tumblers, which would look great together.  A simple, classic shape and high quality finish make this tumbler ideal for entertaining and even summer dining.

Lastly, we are delighted to launch the LSA Orietta bowl in a stunning, rich red.  Having already had the lilac Orietta bowl, we fully appreciate the beauty of this glassware piece and the red one is equally desirable.  This 32cm-wide bowl offers lots of possibilities – as a functional bowl for fruit or tea lights, or simply on its own, the choice is yours.  If you know someone keen on red accessories, this would surely be an ideal gift idea! 

See our extensive LSA glassware selection at Beth Stevens.

Retro Styling is the Way Forward in 2010

Thursday, March 4th, 2010
Retro home styling is expected to be huge this year

Retro home styling is expected to be huge this year

It seems as though retro styling and home accessories will be very popular this year, giving you the chance to go back and recreate some iconic looks from years gone by with a mixture of modern inspiration thrown in for good measure.

The Scotsman, Scotland’s national newspaper, recently revealed that this year will see a trend towards buying quality, affordable interior pieces for the home that will stand the test of time and last for a considerable period.  They are backing classic retro pieces from the 60s and 70s to be big in 2010 as they can be easily matched with contemporary furniture to create a minimal and up-to-date style.

Home accessories such as the Trim Phone by Wild & Wolf – recently featured in The Sunday Express, the Newgate Large Black Electric Wall Clock and even the Type 1227 Anglepoise Lamp that has recently been given a subtle overhauling to modernise the design will be in high demand over the coming months.  For more ideas on retro home products simply browse the Beth Stevens online store.

Sometimes you have to look backwards to go forwards and this current trend definitely proves that retro really is the look to go after this year!

Introducing some ultra stylish LSA glass vases

When it comes to vases, the experts at LSA really set the standard for quality, design and contemporary style.  With so many different ranges and products available, you have always been spoilt for choice when considering which particular glass vase to purchase.

A series of exceptional LSA glass vases have been added to the impressive selection already on offer at our great Beth Stevens online store.  The Odette glass vases have a classic shape that widens at the top allowing bouquets to spread out and create an eye-catching arrangement.  Choose from a stunning clear glass vase or the turquoise glass vase, which is right on trend for spring/summer as the must-have colour for 2010.

If you are keen to make a real statement in your living room, the tall glass vases from the LSA Fiord range will certainly do the trick.  Folded glass sections around the top of the vase enable stems to be positioned exactly you desire and we absolutely adore the attractive design of these elegant vases.  Available as a 35cm-high black glass vase and as a clear glass vase, there is also a tall glass vase in black measuring 60cm that is perfect as a centrepiece to grab your attention.

Lastly, we are thrilled to introduce some additional LSA Orietta glass vases to complement the existing lilac ones.  Similar in style to the Fiord vases, the Orietta glass vases have an undulating rim which making arranging flower stems a breeze.  A sweeping, textured surface adds to the appeal of this luxurious vase and there are two options on offer – a 25cm clear glass vase and a larger 35cm vase.  This design is my personal favourite and I really should get round to getting one for my living room!

Such is the beauty of all these LSA glass vases that they can easily be displayed on their own as decorative accessories in any room.  It goes without saying that they also make excellent gift ideas.  See our full range of LSA glass vases at Beth Stevens.
