Mansion in May 2014

On the second floor of the Blairsden Mansion, this room commanded the most spectacular views overlooking the front entry, reflecting pool, and the mountains to the east. A soothing palette of ivory and grey accented by a brilliant yellow exudes sophistication and brings joy to this corner of the house. At the windows a romantic fabric transports the natural world inside and a noble animal bust stands watch over the entry. Four antique white bergere chairs upholstered in yellow velvet and black and white ermine fabric surround a silver grey table that provides the perfect spot to enjoy afternoon tea, a game of cards, and great conversation. A customized bar holds the lady’s favorite tea sets and accessories. This is the room that soothes and delights, where a little tea and sympathy help to while away the hours.
