Some eye-catching decor for your home

Advertiser Staff and News Services

Some of the most trend-setting items in home decorating are available in Hawai'i.

Going beddie buy

This umbrella can be a shady centerpiece for your patio. It's about $1,400. The optional lamp is extra.

Hedge Row Decorative Outdoors

Transform your bedroom with a romantic suite. This year's high styles — a sophisticated French look, leather accents and fancy filigree — are combined into Henredon's Courchevel bed. Retailing for about $8,000, it comes in several woods, including cherry and European walnut burl. Visit Interior Accents at Gentry Pacific Design Center on 560 N. Nimitz Highway, Suite 107A, or call 523-5553.

Chinese classic

Make the centerpiece of your powder room a sink. Kohler's Serpentine Bronze Vessel lavatory can inspire a fancy setting. The design reflects a Chinese vessel dating from 475-221 B.C. It has an eye-catching motif of fish, turtles and serpents in teal, black and bronze. It's about $1,000 and may be ordered via FNW/Ferguson at 925 Kokea St. Call 832-7474.

Pretty on the patio

Whether you want to entertain outdoors or create a cozy setting for the two of you, Hedge Row Decorative Outdoors' hand-painted patio umbrella can create the look. Selling for about $1,400 ($1,699 with lamp), the umbrellas come in nine colors and several designs. Look for them at www.theumbrellaman.com.
