Arte Italica - The Art of Setting a Table

Arte Italica honors the vision of its founder, Ann Skidmore, by offering the very best in quality and creative home decor design. Ann formed Arte Italica in 1997, as a response to her love of Italian history, culture, art and especially vintage pewter. Finding it difficult to acquire in the United States, she began importing this fine Italian pewter. Soon, she was designing and importing handcrafted ceramics, glass and bronze.

It's no secret that we love creating beautiful table settings. Give us any excuse to take out the fancy dishes and glassware and we are all for it. And pitchers! We love pitchers! They make such a great focal point on any table. One of our new favorites is the Tuscan Pitcher. This classic pitcher can be used for any holiday or special occasion.

Brand Spotlight - Sweet Gumball

Karen Olney is an entrepreneur, product designer and artist based in Alpharetta, Georgia. Her company, Sweet Gumball, is known for being passionate about creating all things simple... and of course, sweet. While some like to describe Sweet Gumball's craftsmanship as "understated elegance" she likes to describe it as designs "from the heart". The color palette is consistent in soft linen tones combined with mineral tones found in nature. The materials used to create the look are described as a blend of cozy meets rustic, a look that can be easily added to a beach home, a farmhouse or any urban setting. Sweet Gumball crafts their products by hand and are happy to add that the art, candles and metal work is all crafted in the USA. The linen collection is designed in the USA, imported from India, and finished in the USA, with love.

We have been proud to offer Sweet Gumball Designs in our shop now for many years. We love supporting arts such as Karen. When customers see Sweet Gumball in person they truly fall in love. Shop our collection of Sweet Gumball farmhouse style art, coastal style art and children's art.
