10 Tips for Timeless Design from Scully & Scully

Located on Park Avenue in New York City, Scully & Scully opened its doors in 1934, aspiring to provide the world’s finest home furnishings and gifts in a gracious and beautiful atmosphere. Over 85 years later, they have achieved that goal and expanded their reach with online sales and a mail-order catalogue that reaches millions of shoppers worldwide.  In addition to a wide variety of handcrafted English and American furniture, Scully & Scully also offers a Bridal Registry, a Tabletop Consulting Service, and a Jewelry Department. With over eight decades of distinguished service, Scully & Scully knows how to create timeless style, and I am delighted today to share their 10 tips for timeless design!

 

 1. Build a color palette mixing modern and traditional basics

2.  Focus on the décor – mirrors, lamps, vases, chandeliers – for unique pieces

3.  Keep it sophisticated without compromising your comfort

4.  Invest in quality pieces for the long-term

5.  Add in classic patterns

6.  Utilize traditional architectural details – crown molding, built-in cabinetry, wainscoting, etc.

7.  Balance traditional pieces with modern upholstery

8.  Mix-and-match for your tabletop

9.  Incorporate trends wisely

10.  If you want to go “out-of-the-box” make it a central point

  1. Whenever I get a catalog from Scully and Scully is always filled with the upmost of classic furnishings and gifts. Very classic and collectibles from the moment they came into your home. It’s a joy to look through their catalog. I’ve only gotten a few things over the years. Maybe some day I will go to their store. Thanks for featuring this coming.

    • Dear Cindy,

      I feel exactly the same way! When the catalogs arrive, I always carve out quiet time to relish and enjoy every page. Scully & Scully is a true gem.

  3. I purchased a beautiful brass floor lamp with 5 bulbs and many choices of illumination. It’s the best lamp I’ve ever had, and it was from Scully and Scully!
