Bringing Equestrian Style into Your Home
There is no place like home as they say and nothing is better than a warm and welcoming place that reflects who you are. The magic of equestrian life enervates our very soul and fortunately there are many ways to incorporate this theme into home life and design.
The horse remains an ever-present subject in home design. Not a day goes by without seeing the image of this beloved creature in print media, digital catalogues and home design.
Today one can create a home look that reflects this important part of yourself. Here are some ideas we hope are helpful.
The Equestrian Library
Build a collection of equine related books over time. This is an invaluable part of home and collecting modern day books and out of print volumes makes for an interesting library. It offers a way to look up looming questions, understand the past thinking and philosophies, and enjoy peaceful evenings over a hot cup of tea.
Collecting Vintage Books
Collecting vintage books not only beautifies a home but repurposes special items. Bronze foal sculpture by Marilyn Newmark and bronze standing horse sculpture by Gaston D'Illiers pictured.
Collect Equestrian Art
The Horse in Art is always popular, whether looking for modern artists or collecting reproductions of great equine masters. There is always something beautiful, inspiring, and enriching to discover.
Equestrian Tabletop and Entertaining
Entertaining in the equestrian home can be casual with a sense of formality thanks to a beautiful array of place settings, linens, serving pieces, and glassware perfect for toasting any occasion. Cheers!
Equestrian Artifacts: Collectables
Start a collection of items like stirrup cups, bridle brasses, antiques, pillows, and sculpture. Begin with simple pieces and grow your collection as your knowledge expands.
There are countless options to suit different tastes, lifestyles and budgets. The key is to create a retreat that reflects your love for equestrian life and warms your soul. Tag us with a photo of your equestrian collection or inspired home design — we love to see it!
