the art deco room looks stunning. I prefer the evening shot! Bertie Wooster or Hercule poirot surely.

Our suite is an original however it's had a recover at some point in its life but even that was quite a few years ago! Our dining room had a nice murphy radiogram, since sold unfortunately but something else equally as nice has taken its place

the hypothetical owner of your rooms would've been more Murphy than HMV, being the more progressive in radio cabinet design

It's osx86's living room carpet that I can't get over! I presume it's a carpet. There must be an interesting story behind it... I personally can't identify the vintage set in the dining room though, it's a bit dark
