Henry II
Graceful Louis XVI reproductions (circa
1840) of walnut with
lemonwood inlay
recall the extravagance of Marie Antoinette.
Discovered in Toulouse, France, the
brass filigree period furnishings
include a
fabulous king/twin bed with a triple bevel-
mirrored
armoire and marble-topped double
dresser. Sunshine fills the
room from a floor
to ceiling front window overlooking historic
St. Charles Avenue.
Victoria
Rich jewel tones befit the majesty of a museum quality Prudence
Mallard (circa 1840-1870) four-poster, full tester king bed.
The prized French Creole bed features Mallard's signature egg
along with intricately carved mahogany curves. A triple rosewood
French armoire balances the bed's proportions. The bells of
St. Charles Avenue streetcars further remind guests of another
day when time crept by and craftsmanship was prized.
Queen Dell
Henry II French antiques of warm walnut
with pink and green floral fabrics create a
magnificent aura. This room is furnished
with a period queen-sized bed and
matching single armoire with a full length
beveled mirror. This cozy room has an
equally magnificent writing table and couch.
An aged brick fence enshrouded in lush
foliage provides a charming view.
Breion
Arguably the most regal, this very private
room is the stuff
of dreams. Folds of
burgundy moiré drape regally from a
custom-designed
crown-canopy king bed.
A marble-topped dresser, triple mahogany
armoire, Rosewood 1800 slipper couch
and petite writing table
lend weight to
the indulgent texturing. This is the room
for
romantics!
Dookie
A Charles Lock Eastlake (Am. circa 1880) mint condition half-tester
bed demonstrates the rectangular lines that are signature Eastlake.
Royal red silk softens the angles of the impressive piece and
period armoire. A vintage clawfoot tub in the private bathroom
offers a long, luxurious soak and enhances the period ambiance
of this enchanting room.
Carriage House
True to historical design, the modern Carriage House sits directly
behind the Main House. This convenient accommodation, features
two fully equipped two-bedroom apartments with private entrances.
These accommodations are perfect for long-term stays. These
apartments are two levels of "home away from home"
luxuries. The first floor features a spacious living room, dining
room, fully equipped kitchen and powder room-perfect for entertaining
guests. The second floor has two bedrooms: one with a queen
bed and the second with twin beds. For added comfort, the twin
