A MAXIMALIST DISPLAY
Perhaps rivaling Veere Grenney’s wall is Jon Urgoiti’s own lebrillo display in this sitting room in his home in Mallorca. Both here in Mallorca and in Grenney’s Tangier haven, we find that natural interplay between the cultures of the two neighboring countries. The intricate Moroccan lamp in Greeney’s courtyard and the Spanish farol granadino in Urgoiti’s sitting room owe their splendid forms to the Visigoths who brought their expertise in metalwork to the peninsula in the 5th century.
ABOVE THE FIREPLACE
The lebrillo, an old Spanish cultural staple, fits right at home in a Spanish Colonial estate. We love to see it take pride of place in this stunning home in Los Angeles. Featured above the fireplace, you absolutely cannot miss it.
FLANKING THE CHIMNEY
And the same technique works in a classic Spanish country home, too. Four lebrillos flank the tall chimney in this large sitting room in this luxury vacation rental near Marbella. Here the owners play with size and pattern, choosing two large intricate lebrillos and two smaller, more sparsely decorated pieces for balance.
SERVING ABUNDANCE
Speaking of Spanish Colonial, this absolutely charming 1923 ranch featured in the book Creating a Home is a perfect example. Mixing influences from around the Mediterranean, this living room features a Spanish lebrillo (on the table) and a deeper French tian overflowing with lime.
A WELCOME CONTRAST
A beautiful large lebrillo can be that rustic touch to an otherwise super modern space. Sitting between these sleek stoneware lamps, the age-worn lebrillo adds contrast. Though geometric designs remain a staple in lebrillo paintings, artisans have included new motifs inspired by the Andalusian landscape.
CAPTURING THE SPOTLIGHT
A very large lebrillo will stand out even in as other elements compete for attention. Here we see a lebrillo taking center stage in this stunning reception room. Despite the room's opulence – the architecture is extravagant, the furnishings ornate, and the light austere – the lebrillo still draws the eye. Featured in Alberto Pinto's 2004 book, Orientalism, this lebrillo bearing a traditional Fajalauza Granada design.
We have 30+ lebrillo designs available ranging in size from 35cm to 80cm. If you need a custom fit, let us know! We also offer custom-made wall mounts.
