...this stunning room full of contrasts: the Asian bonsai, gilded mirror, sculpture-quality lamp and tailored end table make it full of surprises. What do you think of it?
Interesting question and photograph Barbara... Certainly the photo is well composed.The working triangle of the bonsai, table lamp and tufted ottoman pull me through the picture beautifully.
Personally, I struggle with the tufted ottoman. it's color and style don't quite work for me. I would have selected a piece with cleaner lines, maybe with a little black and gold in it... Or maybe a small old delft or silk area rug draped over a low rectilinear coffee table, so that the rug splayed out on to the floor. The rug has deep rose, purple and burgundy in to with tiny gold accents. Yes, I like that more. Now the room is a knockout!!!
For me this room has the perfect pitch. And the Hermes-colored ottoman gives it a little imperfection which begets life and a shot of energy. Love. Mary
