Chalkboard-painted walls are a sophisticated backdrop for furniture, holiday accents and wood wine barrels. Two upholstered chairs break the rules a bit, and soften the look of the bold wood-and-iron table and bench. Small, festive touches throughout keep this rich, moody space lighthearted: from the graceful paper-whites and stockings, to the handblown lantern above and the writing on the chalkboard wall.
