For this edition of Get the Look, we’ve teamed up with Chairish to recreate a vintage, industrial venue we love in Orange County. The Harper is a cool indoor/outdoor venue that’s set in the heart of Costa Mesa, with walls of mirrors and a collected, eclectic atmosphere. There’s a lot to love about the space, from the cool grey-blue walls to the unfinished floors and brassy fixtures. If you’re considering making some changes to your at-home dining space, this spot could serve as inspiration central.
Come along as we trove through antique mirrors, clean-lined chandeliers and finding the exact Harper dining chair. We’re recreating this space the best way we know how, via a shopping list that’ll take your space from zero to Harper in just the click of an “add to cart” button.

With a steel frame and wood seat, these sturdy dining chairs are perfect for recreating that vintage, industrial vibe from Harper. They’ll look especially gorgeous pulled up to a wooden dining table.
The grey-blue tint to these wine glasses perfectly complements the color of your new dining chairs. Sold as a set of ten, the 1980s octagonal glasses are a fab tabletop addition if you’re hoping to work in a subtle hint of color.
At 26”x30”, this vintage beauty will take up a good bit of wall space in your dining room. Dating back to the 1950s, the frame is made of wood and composite with a burnished gold finish and good patina reflecting its age.
A modern, sleek brass chandelier completes the setting at Harper, which you can easily replicate with this fixture. The contemporary design by Blue Print Lighting recalls Italian mid-century classics, with enameled spun aluminum orbs.
To recreate the wall of mirrors at Harper, you’ll want to mix mirrors of all different sizes and shapes. This beauty is in excellent condition, with a reverse etched basket and flowers and gesso roses over its wooden frame.
Love the color of these lavender-grey goblets! We’d steer clear of serving a beverage in them and instead use them for dessert. Think affogato or sorbet with sparkling rosé poured atop.
If you’re going for a slightly more traditional look, this Pimlico brass chandelier features fine cut glass bobeches and drops. It’s buyer’s pick of whether to use the shades or go with bare bulbs.
The frame on this rectangular wall mirror is totally unique, distressed and aged to perfection. As it’s on the larger side, this Hollywood Regency style mirror is a great central anchor to base the rest of your mirrors around.
