Modern Country Loves: Equestrian Style In The Home

Well, whaddaya know?...it turns out that there's a whole plethora of gorgeous stirrupy goodness just waiting to be adored!

As a side-note, I have to tell you that I shudder at the thought of anything twee or overly-themed when it comes to equestrian accessories in the home but these offer a gentle nod to the slightly Modern industrial feel, as well as the Countrified history of horse-riding. Perfect!

Look at these beauties...

Did you check out the handles on this Ralph Lauren chest of drawers? 

And what about these leather stirrup strap storage boxes?
I love those leather straps tautly wrapped around the cream lids.

Could there be a lovelier mealtime accessory than this stirrup-style napkin ring? 
By Ralph Lauren, no less....

For another take on the stirrup lamp that I shared with you in my last post, how about this? A definitely western feel; wouldn't it be perfect in a little boys bedroom?

 But now for my absolute favourite: 
an equestrian-style umbrella stand, 
made using leather and nickel to emulate stirrup straps, 
and the stirrups themselves: chic, simple and gorgeous.  

What are you thoughts on these equestrian-style home accessories? Love 'em or loathe 'em?
