Spotlight On "San Miguel" Style
We started hearing about San Miguel Style a few years ago and the multitude of design ideas relevant to Tuscan and Mediterranean Décor. San Miguel design specializes in the work of Southwestern regional artisans who incorporate natural materials with an eclectic mix of Mexican, Spanish Colonial and European influences.
From whatever Region you call home, decorating in San Miguel style can be as bold as a Rustic Iron Wall Grille or as subtle as a Sugar Mold Candle Holder. |
| Did you ever wonder why Tuscan, Spanish-Colonial, French-Provincial and Old-World Mediterranean styles just naturally seem to complement each other? Back in the 15th Century, countries including Italy, Spain and France began to heavily trade goods with each other by sea and land creating similarities in natural materials while maintaining each Region's subtle differences in construction methods. |
"Tuscan Ranch has become a phenomenon for decorators. The style is simple, the materials in many cases are re-purposed, and the visual impact is immediate. A few pieces here and there create room-defining architectural statements."

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall...
 | |
When decorating in San Miguel style, consider more iconic decorating accessories that complement the natural and rustic appearance of Spanish-Colonial architecture. The look does not have to be overwhelming - just a few statement pieces will do the trick and set the mood in your space.

Old-World Style Wall Renewal
 | |
Updating your wall décor is a cost-effective way to change a room's dynamic. Create Spanish-style harmony with rustic design elements such as warm colour palettes, rich textures, and natural materials including wrought iron, artisanal handicrafted reclaimed wood, talavera and tile. Vintage Wall Gates make dramatic art pieces mounted to a wall inside or outside in the garden while panels, plaques and wall grilles form a focal point for a wall or architectural niche.

Tuscan Farmhouse Dough Bowls
 |
In the first half of the 20th century, bakers at farmhouses in European countries used these hand-carved bowls for bread making. Today, these wooden dough bowls are a staple for Tuscan design and can be used for cradling candles, fresh herbs, fragrant cinnamon pine cones - you name it.
A great decorating idea is to fill these up with coffee beans and insert candle votives!
|
Create Instant Atmosphere
 | |
Rustic Candle Holders and Wall Sconces are a staple to San Miguel Design. Typically crafted of Iron and Glass, Chunky Ceramic or Re-purposed barnwood, these luminary holders are essential to old-world design while doubling as functional art for your home.
|
|
Tuscan Urns & Vases
 | |
Rustic Urns and Vases are a Hallmark accessory in San Miguel Design. Typically constructed of Chunky Ceramic, Terracotta, Majolica, Iron or Hammered Metal, these versatile decorating accessories instantly introduce provincial Tuscany to your home and garden.
|
Tuscan Talavera
 | |
Talavera is a majolica earthenware hand-thrown on the pottery's wheel with designs as bright as a Spanish Flamenco Dancer's dress or as Blue-Green as the Mediterranean Sea. Talavera is synonymous with the Spanish-Colonial landscape and can be seen adorning walls in homes and haciendas, kitchens, churches and garden courtyards. The design of each piece is highly regulated by tradition.
