Vermeer at the Met

Fall in New York reminds us of Woody Allen movies, intimate dinners and parties and spending time with good friends and family. After a great walk through Central Park check out the Vermeer exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum. The way he creates light in his paintings is out of this world and inspirational when you see it in person. While you are there, check out the Roxy Paine installation on the roof, you'll love it!

Open House at MasonGray in Soho

Every Thursday afternoon this autumn, drop by MasonGray in Soho for a glass of wine (or several) and a snack (or two). Meet our designers, talk with our Client Services Group and see our multi layered, hand applied finishes up close. Prada is down the block and Balthazar is right downstairs. Make an afternoon of it. See you soon.

Litchfield County, Connecticut

In the past few years we have spent a lot of time in Litchfield County, Connecticut. It's where our factory is located and is a short 2 hour drive from New York. Autumn is one of the best times to visit with all the foliage and an abundance of small towns to visit. Some of our favorites are Litchfield, Kent, New Preston and Lake Waramaug. There are also some great hotels and spas to check out like the Mayflower Inn and the Winivan. Along the way there is beautiful scenery and many antique stores to browse. For more specific events and information check out Rural Intelligence. Have a great trip!

MasonGray on ShopAD

We love 1st Dibs which makes browsing for antiques and vintage pieces for the home as easy as turning on your computer. They also have a portfolio system which allows you to save images of the things you like and categorize them. So you can create your wish lists for all your design projects. Now 1st Dibs has teamed up with Architectural Digest to create ShopAD. So you can select from a large variety of newly manufactured pieces as well, including MasonGray. A great way to shop for vintage pieces and new ones to create the perfect decor!
