The first large study (the so-called ‘Walnut Room’), a most attractive room, decorated throughout in wood and gold, contained very acceptable furniture … The second study was considerably plainer, mainly appointed with furniture from Crown holdings. Particularly the desk was more than tasteless, a polished brown product of the atrocious furniture style of the seventies … the walls of this room and the bedroom and all the upholstered furniture were covered with heavy, dark-brown silk, decorated with scattered green ivy leaves; it looked old-fashioned, yet somehow original … it was furniture you would no longer see in a better-class household.
