New Shipment in Portobello

Portobello received a new shipment of some fabulous items that include the aluminum table above along with the huge glass bowls. The table is a wonderful accent piece, especially in a traditional home setting to add just the right amount of "POP." The bowls are a wonderful size and a unique find. We put one on display in the main entrance foyer, filled with lemons and tulips. It is absolutely beautiful!
