A closer look at the vanity in our Marylebone Penthouse.
We wanted this corner to feel calm and inviting, but still have enough character to hold its own. The vanity’s sweeping curved silhouette gives it a sculptural quality, while the finely woven finish brings warmth, texture and a lovely softness to the piece.
Geometric brass handles add a little glimmer, picked up again in the slim frame of the oval mirror. A shagreen tray keeps favourite scents and everyday essentials together, while the marble mirror base, woven leather stool and hand-finished ceramic vase bring another mix of materials into the space.
It’s a small part of the penthouse, but one where every element, texture and finishing touch has been thought through, right down to the flowers that make getting ready in the morning feel that bit more enjoyable.
Although we’d probably end up sitting here far longer than necessary.
