Otis & Clark, architects 
A striking feature of this 
dining-room is the use of mir¬ 
rors over the mantel and over 
the console on the farther side. 
Candelabra and sconces have 
been effectively placed. The 
paper is an old design in 
panels. The over-door decora¬ 
tions are interesting and har¬ 
monize with the scheme 
Charles Platt, architect 
The disposition of the furni¬ 
ture in this living-room is cal¬ 
culated to avoid crowding and 
to impart the restfulness of 
large spaces in addition to 
affording the valuable rug just 
display and even wearing. 
Note that the woodwork is 
considered sufficiently decora¬ 
tive in itself 
Gimbel Brothers, decorators

feeling. Walls paneled and

Chinese rug with design in 
blue, rose and gold; brass 
sconces; floor lamp of black 
lacquer with floral designs and 
Chinese symbols. The furni¬ 
ture is Chinese in black lac¬ 
quer with gold and jade spots 
A. Raymond Ellis, architect 
The effectiveness of this din¬ 
ing-room is gained by a few 
pieces of furniture, and those 
good in line and consistent in 
period. The room would be 
further enhanced by putting 
shirred scrim curtains on the 
French ivindow, attaching the 
curtains against the glass top 
and bottom
