Water elements like curated finds that inspire mystery and curiosity. “Ethnic” treasures such as African Masks, Bali carved trunks, and rattan pendants all connect to this worldly element.

Deep & Rich Tones

Water elements are highly introverted and intuitive. To connect to this energy, deep tones and rich, jeweled tones, such as navy blues, eggplant, and hunter’s green sooth these watery souls.

Texture, Texture, Texture

Natural textures such as furs (faux please!), wools, rattans, and linen not only add depth to your space but connect to the element of Water.

Abstract and Organic Elements

Fluid like water, this element has shapes that are abstract and organic. Paisleys, waves, and spirals all resonate with this chi.
