Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold…
Love the rough plank floor, the amber leather chairs,
heavy blond pine table legs,
griffin and arabesque scrolled stone fireplace mantle…
Gold and tans…
ebony, and burnt gold trimmed black lacquer…
Incredible embossed gold detail inset into top molding,
potable wall color…coffee and cream…

The collector…
the objects in the room, set against the lovely cream boiserie…
tell the color story…
Paris Style
Taschen
Gorgeous antique Italian terra-cotta medallions are portraits
of laurel crowned Roman emperors…
A trilogy of russet accents the tonal blend…

“A Louis XVI gilt tester bed, and a Regency
traveling money changing cabinet…”
“An Indian traveling trunk holds an Etruscan Attic vase
and an Art Nouveau sculpture…”

You have left me basking in the golden glow of these beautiful images ~ a soft golden champagne color is the background neutral throughout a good portion of my home, and I have never regretted it.
Beautiful photos and lyrics from Sting. GOLD!
My God I love your blog!

Gorgeous!
