The Objects of Their Affections
produced by Barbara Thornburg
What’s essential: A great lamp, an old basket or burnished copper urn filled with greens or fruit, a big, chic porcelain plate.
Personal favorites: “I have a collection of 18th century dessins habilles--gouache paintings of people--dressed with paper and fabric. They’re kind of quirky and wacky.” The tip: Old French oversized linen napkins--”and you can never have too many books.” *
“Accessories add warmth to a home and give a sense of the people who live there.”
--Suzanne Rheinstein, Hollyhock
