This Week's Top 5 Favorite 1stdibs Items: Cloudy Grays!

For some, a sunny day is the ultimate, perfect day. For others (the writer of this post included), a perfect day is less with the sunny and more with the cloudy. Not necessarily raining, but a nice, overclouded sky with soft, gray tones on everything can be just as inspiring as a bright, sunny day. Last week we talked about decorating a room in Autumn colors, but today we’ve grabbed some furniture and accessories that have gray tones, for creating your own calm, cloudy decor!

1) Rare Chaise Lounge by Hans Harti for Eugene Schmidt
Not only is the color of this chaise lounge the perfect one to start off a gray color-themed room, but the shape is almost cloud-like! We love that such a modern-shaped piece would be included in a gray cloud day themed space.
Price: $12,000
Dealer: Lost City Arts

2) Danish Modern Armchair
We love this chair for a lot of reasons. It's got great modern lines, it's in the Danish style and it's got a great gray wool fabric as the upholstery! What a fun way to start a gray-colored room by combining this piece with the above chaise lounge!
Price: $1,850
Dealer: Monument

3) Moooi Boutique Single Seater Chair
This is a contemporary piece, but we adore the way the tailored pattern on the upholstery of this chair creates the perfect gray color tone. Not only that, but combined with the above two items, you suddenly have a room decked out in cloudy grays, but still managing to be a lot of fun!
Price: $3,040
Dealer: Twentieth Art and Design

4) Folded Stainless Steel Console by Francois Monnet
You've got to have some gray metal if you're going to be doing a gray-themed room, and this 1970s console base could serve as both a table bottom or a sculpture. However you use it, it's sure to help finish off a cloudy-themed interior!
Price: $3400
Dealer: Pavilion Antiques

5) French Architect's Desk
Rounding out this list of gray, cloudy-colored pieces is a great French table. The French are the masters of soft, subtle gray tones, and this architect's desk with faded white paint and fun vintage details is perfect for invoking an overcast day.
