Wonderful house!!!!

 

I don't care for the Louis XV love seats but LOVE that mantle!!!

 

I don't care for the Duncan Phyfe dining chairs in the "tea" room.  The stair foyer, beautiful.  I'd like the colors a little more traditional.  That yellow green really stops the visual flow.



Agree, it is a lovely house, isn't it. As for the furniture, interesting perspectives. Given the squared backs and straight legs, I'd place the love seats as being more Louis XVI than the earlier Louies Smiley Wink Meanwhile, the chairs strike me more as French Regency than Duncan Phyfe, but with some pictures that lack detail it's so hard to tell. I actually like the acid green seating piece under the stairwell, but take away the pink flower and it'll need something else for contrast. Smiley Very Happy

Re: New Orleans Grand Dame...

I have to say, I'm totally smitten by the pretty stairway and railing.
