We don't all have 40,000. for wallpaper. also f. schumacher has some murals. one thought - you could always do just one wall in the paper and paint the other walls the deep gray. with white linens it would make a gorgeous bedroom. Marilyn Evins has a gray mural in her bedroom that is too die for. in the Arch Digest of her apartment - with the original tortoise shell study.cotedetexashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06421509668956556785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-19080839248156544762009-11-05T15:41:04.047-05:002009-11-05T15:41:04.047-05:00Curious- I think that's a party you will never...Curious- I think that's a party you will never forget! I agree- the book is a gem.

How timely of you to share this ...Dear Ms. Bowles! <br />How timely of you to share this subject and how commendable of you to bring this splendid tome to our attention! I was in fact in NYC to see the exhibition of Madame Pommerantz's wallpapers that were being shown at Mallet's this last month of Oct. She was there to answer questions and I had the added pleasure of counting her as a guest at a very nice champagne reception later that evening to celebrate my 50th birthday and during which time she kindly autographed and inscribed my copy of the book which had been the birthday gift to me by our host! Seeing her superb efforts and sound connoisseurship recognized in your incomparable blog is a truly appreciated gesture towards a valued and esteemed colleague. When Madame Pommerantz exhibits here in Palm Beach for the annual Antiques Show, her booth is stunning! And I much appreciate that you shared the image of the Rochas bedroom by Geoffroy which I had never seen!The Curious Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398535657109988456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-72628401794694690872009-11-05T12:35:04.275-05:002009-11-05T12:35:04.275-05:00That arcaded wallpaper is a beauty, Jennifer, espe...That arcaded wallpaper is a beauty, Jennifer, especially with the vibrant blue sky, and if you have an extra $42,000 sitting around, you can go right over to the A. L. Diament website & grab a 12-foot long multi-panel set of the same design, printed back in the 1920s. This particular set is not <i>en grisaille</i>, but sometimes, one just has to make do with what's available. <br /><br />http://www.aldiament.com/_thumb.asp?filename=05a&dw=500&dh=350Room Temperaturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01607564640695937012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-42349752646498775322009-11-05T10:02:47.257-05:002009-11-05T10:02:47.257-05:00Your memory for rooms and details is amazing!

Although the harbor scene had suffered quite a bit of water damage and would be extremely pricey to restore, the screen (all 12 ft.) fills one living room wall and makes me happy every time I look at it. Isn't that the point of interior design--to make us happy!
