In remodeling their old brownstone front houses 
New Yorkers are carrying the rehabilitation all the 
way through and creating quite interesting environ¬ 
ments for their furniture. In this front drawing 
room the walls are soft green, a charming background 
for old English furniture. Glazed chintz is used for 
curtains and some of the coverings. A few of the 
pieces are in needlepoint

From England were brought the panels of this library. 
They are a rich, deep green decorated with a design 
of a deeper shade and set into yellow woodwork, 
which is finished with a heavy glaze. These colors 
form an interesting atmosphere not alone for the 
furniture , but also for the owner’s rarely beautiful 
collection of jades and Chinese porcelains
