Way too traditional for me. I think the clock size over powers everything. Don't care for any of the accessories.

I don't care for the clock but the chest is gorgeous, and although traditional, would blend with many other styles. Very versatile piece.

I like all but the huge clock.

Another very pretty one. I'm typically not a fan of dark woods & colonial accent pieces, but these do go well together. I'm able to overlook some of the design thanks to the lightness of the walls, curtains, etc.

Love the arrangement on and above the beautiful chest of drawers. Also feel the yellow and blue work nicely. This is something I could live with!

I like the chest, but I don’t care for anything else in the space. Just not my style in accessories or colors.

I like everything...especially the chest and clock.

i collect antique watches and clocks. A clock like that sells for a small fortune. They are getting more difficult to find, especially in working order.

i am wondering what that metal thing visible in the window is. Weird. Maybe a security device?

Oh good! Nobody but me wants the three blue and white pieces on the chest!

I love the chest and the clock.

I would have to take away the hanging plates, all the pictures, and the pom pom curtains.

That clock is too big!!!!!

With the exception of the clock, this area is very appealing. I would prefer art work on the wall, a nice landscape.

@Sooner Oh my gosh, I'm sorry... Did I neglect to mention those have been added to the stevieb collection... Tell you what, because I'm a good sport and because you're, well, you... I'll share... The bowl on the right is on its way west...

Beautiful! I love every single item in this picture!

@stevieb So kind! I will never tire of blue and white porcelain!

I found two big vases ON CLEARANCE at the Biltmore gift shop and my husband thought I would go nuts. They are Vera Bradley and match. He said "Which one do you want?" Really? BOTH!

@Sooner I have so much blue and white I have to rotate it and still, some of it is packed away in storage. I've more or less stopped acquiring pieces but am still sometimes tempted. Were I to stumble across that oblong piece in the center of the chest, (which I think is actually a foot bath) I'd be a goner.

@stevieb No problem. We'll house it six months at a time.

Me too @Citrine1. I might or might not have chosen the curtains or wallpaper, but I like them along with every element comprising that pretty vignette. I love the chest, clock, blue and white pieces and the silhouettes and other framed art...
