There are a ton of good deals right now at CB2, which is having a mid-season sale. (If you’re not familiar, the brand is like Crate & Barrel’s younger, hipper, slightly less affluent cousin.) As the more trend-sensitive of the two brands, CB2 can hold a sale full of zany experiments that you may not want to pay full price for but are worthwhile at 20 to 30 percent off. There are also some tried-and-true products we’ve written about before — perfect, simple bodega glasses and a loungy sofa. The sale ends on June 27, so you have time to browse — but if you see something you like, act fast, as things can sell out.
Tableware
These deep-blue plates have a reactive glaze finish, which creates subtle irregularities and texture.
A very good price on a set of solid, non-fussy white porcelain plates.
I love the purplish-brownish-red finish of this serving bowl, which would look great filled with fresh vegetables or fruit.
We’ve talked to many people who love these glasses. They’re on sale in several different sizes, including a petite tasting glass and larger drinking glass.
A cute and fun fluted cocktail coupe for $6 (or $25 for a set of four).
Furniture
I love the veining on this red Rosso Levanto marble table. The I-beam-shaped design gives it a lightweight silhouette, helpful for a material that skews heavy.
A handwoven banana-leaf storage basket for toys, linens, or fake plants.
It is nearly impossible to find a nice-looking flush-mounted light — here’s your chance to get one for 30 percent off.
The ribbed glass and coiled cord of this pendant lamp remind me of details of my favorite wacky postmodern lamps, but the matte iron finish keeps the design grounded.
A pretty brass-framed wall mirror with a handmade oval beveled pattern around the edge.
We are still in the clutches of big bouclé. This comb-shaped armchair/dining chair is 15 percent off in burnt sienna (other bouclé colorways are still full price).
A solid, loungy sofa for 18 percent off as a sectional or 10 percent off as a 62-inch “apartment sofa.”
Bedding, curtains, and towels
If you avoid patterns but still want some details on your bedding, consider this European linen duvet cover with a pretty burnt-orange border …
… Or this set of organic-cotton percale sheets with a chic little black line of piping.
This extra-comfy organic cotton bath sheet is on sale for 29 percent off in both slate blue and black.
This flax curtain panel has a subtle white-on-white plaid pattern, which adds texture without overpowering a smaller space.
CB2’s solid-color linen curtain panels are also on sale in charcoal and ochre yellow.
A bunch of sizes and colors of the Bettie cotton-velvet pillow are on sale, both as a pillow cover and with a down or down-alternative insert included. I especially like the teal and yellow colorways and the incredibly large, four-foot-long lumbar pillow.
