This popular design element on luxury furniture conveys a more subtle elegance that requests a quiet admiration.  Many enjoy the appearance of distressed finishes for its unique style and character.  Purposeful indentations, rubbed-off paint, and softly weathered finishes are just a few distress elements to create that well-worn, loved and antique appearance.

The Hatfield Living Room set pictured bears a softly distressed Alabaster finish with delicate wood carvings throughout.  The light wood finish adds a serene touch to this set, while soft, alternating shades of taupe and beige on accent pillows and cushioning provide just the right amount of cozy charm.
