A Day of Refinement at The Wallace Collection

I stopped for a coffee in Eat, and the jagged geometric shapes of the paper lights multiplied in the mirror caught my attention.

A chandelier from below.

My favourite room, lurid green and lavishly brushed with gold and cut glass!

Feeling very sophisticated I managed to veer away from the shops on Oxford Street and headed instead to 'The Wallace Collection' a few minutes walk away. A London town house packed with art and luxurious items, it was free to the public; I felt like I had stepped on to a film set with a multi-million dollar budget. I loved the vibrant green wallpaper pictured above and the gold embellishment which made it onto even the most subdued items.
