Sitting in the Parlor

 

The parlor is elegantly adorned with sophisticated brass ornaments and hardware throughout the room. Hanging from the ceiling is a Casbah crystal chandelier, replicating the sparkling lanterns of 19th-century Morocco, the arresting globe-shaped chandelier is strung with hundreds of multi-faceted crystals, each polished by hand to a brilliant shine.

The plum drapery is richly textured upholstery weight linen that is masterfully crafted from the world's finest Belgian flax; loomed at Libeco, the oldest and most venerable mill in Belgium

Wallpaper is made by British designers Farrow & Ball, who use their own richly pigmented paint using traditional block and trough printing methods to give a uniquely tactile finish and seamless connection between paint and paper.  The parlor room is covered with Brockhampton Star 506 in Pointing No.2003 and bespoke gold. Brockhampton Star dates back to 1870 from the dining room at Brockhampton Hall. With a buoyant, ornate star motif, this is an enchanting design, warm and welcoming.  Brockhampton Star 532 in bespoke red and bespoke gold is in the wet bar area. 

The Reginald club chairs 1970s-inspired are plushly padded and supported by a sleek, polished brass bar frame and slope-arm design offering a comfortable, rounded back. Marble top tables with brass legs are used to complement the marble fireplace original to the home.

To preserve the history of the home, the wall bares witness to the water level of the great historic Dayton flood in 1913.
