Industrial metal wire can come in all shapes and sizes.  One of my favorites is the metal wire gym basket.  It’s a great accent for the home and has 101 uses.

Here are some metal wire baskets used to hold all kinds of things, bottles, tools, cork and even Chinese fortune cookies. Wire baskets can really come in handy to organize your home and at the same time add some vintage style. So when it’s time to relax, get your favorite bottle from an industrial metal wire wine rack. Cheers!

Who would have thought that our old school gym lockers would be making such a fashion statement today. I won’t tell you how long ago, but I remember gym class and putting my clothes in those metal lockers. And rainy days were the best because we got to stay indoors and play bombardment, and get back at some of those not so nice classmates.

Well now metal gym lockers are all the rage in home furnishings. If you can find a vintage locker all the better but they are now being reproduced in mass as end tables, consoles and coffee tables.  Even Restoration Hardware features metal lockers and at not so modest prices. So mix things up and get that vintage look in your home with these metal gym lockers. That’s the bell, gym class is over!

Industrial chaise lounge, you wouldn’t normally put those three words together.  But get an old worn solid metal chaise lounge and add some vintage canvas padding and you’ve got some cool industrial style going on.

I like that the yellow paint on this chaise is practically worn down to the metal frame.  It gives a nice vintage industrial look.  And forget some pretty floral print that would usually go on the back porch.  Get some heavy duty canvas in army green and you’ve got one great industrial strength chaise lounge.

Add a pad to the back and I could definitely do some serious lounging on this metal chaise!

I’m so glad that Sweden’s King Gustav III liked to travel to France and meet up with Louis XVI.  If he hadn’t, there wouldn’t be these great antique sofas that were born out of the Gustav period.

These antique sofas are perfect examples of Sweden’s classic gray and off-white finishes.  The lines are curvy but simple and I think I like them better now with the worn wood and tattered upholstery.  And if you’ve ever looked close at one of these classic sofas you’ll see the real horse hair padding.

Not sure I’m ready to replace my cushy sectional yet but I sure can appreciate the beauty in these vintage Swedish sofas.

Old meets new.  Inspired by vintage industrial carts, this new wood console table could be mistaken for the real thing.  Perfect as a media center and plasma TV stand, this industrial cart comes fully equipped with drawers, metal handles and wheels to complete that industrial look.

They also make end tables with the same industrial inspiration.  All natural wood, metal corners and industrial wheels.  At least they would be easy to move around!

An added bonus are the vintage fabric sample books on top of these carts.  Like their industrial coworkers, they too were built to last.  Leather bound with brass edging they have withstood the test of time, and so have the plaid fabrics inside!

Vintage industrial iron bowls are hard to find.  And if you can uncover one that is old and rusted all the better!  I don’t know about you but I am over the wood bowl on the coffee table routine, way too Pottery Barn.

I’m not sure what these industrial bowls were used for but I think they would look great in the home, on a coffee table of course.  Rusted iron has great texture and mixes things up, particularly on a wood table.  You can put cool things in these bowls but I think they are better off just left alone.  And please, put the rustoleum away!
