Pieces to Elevate your Entryway this Season
The entryway is a window into the home – it’s your opportunity to create a first impression and establish the atmosphere for your space.
Many components can be used to style an entryway. You may find that the addition of a sconce instead of a mirror above the entryway table creates simplicity, or the use of both creates a particular balance.
We’ve rounded up some of our favorite entryway pieces to help you explore the endless possibilities that come with designing this essential home space.

Console Tables
Whether it’s a place for minimal decor like a few carefully curated books and an artisan vase, or a place to toss your keys, a console table is a functional piece to welcome you when you step in the door.
Sturdy and luxurious, the Stone Console table from Ethnicraft makes an impression all on its own. Designer Djordje Cukanovic creates a moody air with natural swirls of the marble juxtaposed with the clean lines of its metal base.

Charleston Forge Sling Coffee Table designer Katy Acuff incorporates high-quality materials including a solid steel base, leather sling and your choice of a wood or glass top. Choose your leather and metal finish for a fully customized, functional piece.
The simplicity of this Mirror Top Console allows it to complement nearly any entryway regardless of style. It features an aged mirror top on a sleek, black metal frame. Dress it up to become the focal point in your entryway, or keep it simple to be less noticeable – the choice is yours.
Runners
test
A runner is nothing short of the in-home version of a red carpet. Welcome your guests into your home by creating visual direction with an artisan-made, hand-knotted rug.
The Mulholland Collection from Amber Lewis x Loloi features soft, carefully hand-knotted wool and cotton textiles. Each rug varies slightly due to its handcrafted and natural origin, skillfully woven by artisans in India.
Another piece from Amber Lewis x Loloi, the organic, hand-woven look of this rug makes it an excellent entryway addition. Creating a feeling of warmth, this ivory and taupe rug is a neutral piece that will create an inviting entrance to your home.
Adding a splash of color, the Sahara rug is made up of warm neutral and cool cerulean and turquoise hues that register as a rich blue-green from afar. The feeling of calm waters met with abstract lines serves as an unexpected centerpiece.
Mirrors
Distinguished yet a bit quirky in all the right ways, the Fairmount Mirror Collection is made up of three differently shaped, leather-framed mirrors. The unlimited ways in which they can be arranged make for a fun way to add some attention-grabbing wall decor above a console table. The hand-stitched, vegetable-tanned leather adds a natural, rustic feel that only gets better as it darkens slightly with age.
The detailed frame of the Sphere wall mirror by Ethnicraft will have your guests coming in for a closer look. Handcrafted from solid, natural wood and made unique with ancestral artistic techniques, the naturally crackled look of this mirror adds character and charm to an entryway wall.

For a more abstract look, the Eclipse round mirror needs little else around it to complete the space. Made up of a large black metal circle and a smaller round mirror, the Eclipse round mirror is undoubtedly reminiscent of a nighttime view.
Lighting
Penna Sconce by Cerno (Left), Cereus Lamp by Five Ply Design (Right)
For an organic, yet innovative and modern feel, this design marvel from Five Ply Design is sure to steal the show. American-made from the basswood down to the hardware, the Cereus Lamp is much more than just a lighting solution. It demonstrates thoughtful design delivered in the form of an easy-to-style lamp. Available in three different sizes, this cactus form needs little other company when placed on an entryway console table.
Enhance your walls with the Penna Sconce – a tall, illuminated solid wood and brass fixture that feels reminiscent of a luxury hotel or a fine museum. Its understated form makes it a strong choice to use either alone or in pairs alongside framed art.
Trumpet Lamp by Lostine (Left), Pearl Sconce by Cisco Home (Right)
Delivering all of the cozy, warm feelings with its handmade wooden base, the Trumpet Lamp adds that touch of both sophistication and farmhouse without favoring one or the other. This lamp is finished off with many thoughtful touches, like a twisted cloth wire cord and a vintage-inspired, Bakelite plug.
A lovely display of Cisco Home’s careful attention to detail, the Pearl Sconce is crafted from hand-blown glass and durable rust-black iron. This sconce is available in eight different glass options from a warm, translucent auburn to an opaque icy blue. Set the tone for your entryway with this powerful little detail.
Decor

What a wonderful concept an organizer is – having a compartment to separate your belongings and keep things tidy is an underrated way to keep peace in your home.
The Desk Organizer Set from Ethnicraft makes for a useful and stylish valet tray to sit on any console table. Set your keys down so that you actually know where they are as you run out the door, or empty your pockets of change and whatever else the day brought. However you use it, the orderliness that comes with it is something to be appreciated.
The Utilitile Wall Hanger is a minimalist’s dream. With rectangular hooks that softly tuck away when not in use, this piece is a simple way to elevate a hallway in a functional way.
