VOLUME 01 North River
With several distinctive collections, Martha Stewart Furniture with Bernhardt helps you create a home that is comfortable, beautiful, and remarkably affordable. Each of our collections has its own character. Yet pieces from all of them, as well as our extensive upholstery selection, combine easily so you can achieve a truly personal result. For early Dutch settlers, the North River now the Hudson connected New York s rolling countryside with what would soon become its vibrant city. Similarly, the North River Collection brings together the warmth of old-world country furnishings and the smart sophistication of modern design. It mingles traditional honey-colored finishes and wood turnings with chic mid-century profiles and luxuriously grained mahogany veneers. Gold leaf accents, handpainted chinoiserie, granite tabletops, and bronze-finished grillwork enhance rooms with their distinctive character. Inspired by Martha s favorite eclectic living spaces, the North River Collection celebrates the distinct individuality of a home lovingly assembled over time. As with all of our furniture, North River is distinguished by premium construction and thoughtful design. Fine craftsmanship, select materials, and careful attention to detail ensure the functionality, longevity, and value of each piece. So enjoy the decorating possibilities in these pages and let our furniture inspire you to create the home you ve always dreamed of.

living A clean, modern aesthetic and restrained color palette create an atmosphere of relaxed sophistication in the room shown at right. Inspired by classic Dunbar style, the Cadden Cutaway Scroll-Arm Sofa and Chair share sweptback arms and sculptural profiles that display an undeniable mid-century panache. Both the Beekman Nesting Cocktail Tables and matching Side Table have a glistening contemporary look thanks to a painted Jet finish and inset tops of mirrored Eglomisé glass; close at hand for entertaining, the smaller cocktail tables tuck neatly under the larger until needed. The grille-front Riverdale Library is right at home in these smart environs. ABOVE A handsome home for an entertainment system, the Bordelaise-finished Riverdale Breakfront Media Console is notable for the striking open metal grillwork, finished in Vintage Bronze, found in all four of its doors. Inside are adjustable shelves for electronic components and DVDs, while the spacious veneered top accommodates a wide-screen TV. ACCENTS Glazed Ceramic Lamps, Faux Bois Rug in White Birch. PAINT: MS135 Scrapbook. (See p. 24) 2 living room 888-5-martha
Softened by supple lines and warm colors, this living room is amiable and inviting. The Winslow English Tight-Back Sofa features curves both subtle and defined, from the long, easy bow of the tight-upholstered back to the accentuated scroll of the slender arms. The same Beekman Nesting Cocktail Tables that are cool and urbane in Jet become rich and timeless finished top to bottom in Bordelaise; the Beekman Side Table completes the set, providing a convenient drawer and veneered shelf. Nearby, the Chelsea Painted Console Table s form suggests an antique updated in smooth, contemporary style. LEFT A richly colored Sepia granite top adds warmth to the Chelsea Painted Console Table s silky India Ink finish. ACCENTS Glazed Ceramic Lamp, Grove Rug in Silver Leaf. PAINT: MS236 Cinders. (See p. 24) ABOVE The turned legs and rounded stretchers of the Chelsea Painted Console Table are minimally adorned, and its apron deftly conceals two drawers with finger pulls so that no hardware interrupts its sleek surfaces. marthastewart.com living room 5
dining With slim profiles and refined dimensions, this ensemble while generous in size leaves the surrounding room feeling spacious and airy. The Sutton Sheraton Dining Table, while influenced by the work of the master cabinetmaker, is distinctly modern in its simplicity. At its beveled corners, slender double-legs are positioned at the table s outer edge, leaving the underside completely free from obstruction. A contrasting veneer borders its fancy-face mahogany top, finished in velvety Bordelaise. Thin backs give the Sutton Upholstered Armchair and Side Chair their chic silhouettes, upholstered here in an elegant combination of tonal leather and fabric. The Sutton Fretwork China Cabinet displays trim grilles that underscore the room s geometry. ABOVE With a shape inspired by an open bookcase of Martha s, the Sutton Breakfront Sideboard has lines and angles that play beautifully off its companion pieces. Finished in Bordelaise, its broad veneered top has a contrasting veneer border to match the dining table and makes a roomy serving area for a buffet. ACCENTS Veneto Chandelier, Reflection Rug in Water. PAINT: MS110 Pignoli. (See p. 24) 6 dining room 888-5-martha
An eclectic mix of light and dark finishes gives the antique-inspired pieces in this congenial room a fresh energy. On the French Countrystyle North River Round Dining Table, a cathedral-grain cherry veneer glows under a lustrous Brandywine finish. For effortless family-style service, it can be topped with the matching North River Lazy Susan. The North River Turned Armchair and Side Chair provide a pleasing contrast painted in Ebony; they are also available in Brandywine for a more traditional grouping. The North River Sideboard in Brandywine is as practical as it is beautiful, ideal for serving, storage, and display. TOP A concealed mechanism beneath the North River Lazy Susan guides its smooth rotation, making it easy to share dishes, drinks, and condiments. BOTTOM Against the deep sheen of an Ebony paint finish, hand-painted gold rules highlight the turned details on our North River Turned Chairs. ACCENTS Conservatory Chandelier, Solar Garden Rug in Fig. PAINT: MS215 Morning Dewdrop. (See p. 24) NOTE To view the rectangular version of the North River Dining Table, as well as the Turned Chairs finished in Brandywine, see inside back cover. ABOVE Reminiscent of a classic Hitchcock chair, the North River Turned Armchair is remarkable for the assembly of intricate turnings that make up its arms, legs, seat, and back. The inset box cushion can be upholstered in any of our plush fabrics to harmonize with surrounding décor. marthastewart.com dining room 9
sleeping The pairing of elaborate turnings with pristine cabinetry helps this welcoming bedroom achieve perfect balance. The Tea Leaf-finished North River Four-Poster Bed features a carefully turned blanket rail and posts, as well as a smooth cap rail along the top of the fancy-face headboard. It can be configured with four tall posts in traditional style, or its foot posts can be removed to create a low footboard profile, as shown at right. Beside it, the North River Bachelor s Chest provides the contrast of pure, Shaker-inspired lines. A concave front offsets the roomy North River Landscape Dresser, while trim detailing in white gold leaf is the sole embellishment on the clean North River Mirror. ABOVE A Gustavian-inspired bonnet top crowns the versatile North River Bonnet Armoire. Finished in Tea Leaf, it functions admirably as both a wardrobe and media cabinet, with lined trays, removable shirt partitions, adjustable shelves, and a three-plug receptacle for electronics. ACCENTS Milk Glass Lamp, Martha Stewart Framed Photography Apple Tree and Corn Crib. (See p. 24.) 10 bedroom 888-5-martha
This bedroom group celebrates simplicity. With its immaculate lines and deep, cool Tea Leaf finish, the North River Pencil Post Bed is strikingly clean and pure. Tapering, pencil-thin posts rise high into the air, topped by tester rails that may be draped with a canopy or removed entirely. The posts rest upon austere block-foot bases, and the bed frame sits low to accommodate standard or luxury mattresses. Alongside it, the North River Nightstand is distinguished by a front that curves gently inward, a detail inspired by a piece in Martha s Maine retreat; it also boasts graceful turnings and a veneered top, all finished in Tea Leaf. LEFT Throughout the North River Collection, exquisite turnings display artistic shape and flawless proportion. BELOW LEFT North River case goods feature carefully selected hardware finely wrought in Tumbled Brass, a tone that subtly flatters each of our wood finishes. ACCENTS Alabaster Lamp, Bloomery Rug in Dogwood. PAINT: MS291 Silver Artemisia. (See p. 24) ABOVE The Palisades Writing Desk provides a pleasing spot for composing letters, making journal entries, or balancing a checkbook. With its curved front and Tea Leaf finish, it coordinates neatly with the North River bedroom group, but also works well in the corner of a living room or den. The North River Turned Side Chair finished in Brandywine makes a warmly contrasting companion piece. marthastewart.com bedroom 13
