Five Floors of Luxury on Beacon Street

A few weeks ago I had the absolute pleasure of touring a beautiful home on Boston's famed Beacon Street. How did I get an invitation? Well it just so happens that my good friend, Jerry Arcari, owner of the award-winning Landry & Arcari Oriental Rugs & Carpeting in Boston, MA, created and curated the floor coverings for all five floors of the luxurious townhouse. The floors, all from The Dabbieri Collection, consisted of silk rugs, leather floor tiles, wool carpeting, and so much more!

I took a few photos (not sure if that was appropriate) because I just couldn't stand not sharing with all my friends on DesigningLuxury.com! So, here's a quick tour...

One of the many balconies facing out to Beacon Street.

The beautiful kitchen sitting area was laced with grey marble!

One of the many sitting rooms featuring beautiful rugs and a grand piano.

Our hosts served delicious Blood Orange Martinis, all catering by Davio's.

One of the 6ish bathrooms I counted. I say 6ish because I think I lost count!

And finally, a picture of the outside of Landry & Arcari in Boston, MA.

Landry and Arcari, one of my favorite floor covering showrooms, was founded in 1938. There are actually two showrooms - one in Boston's Back Bay and another in Salem, MA. With the largest selection of handwoven rugs in New England, I'm always overwhelmed by the beauty that lies in a wonderfully crafted floor covering. Jerry loves to feature fine antiques, formal and traditional designs, tribal rugs and kilims, and Tibetan and other contemporary rugs. They also design and weave custom rug for their more adventurous clients.

If you're in the area I highly recommend stopping by!
