My favourite corner...

This is my favourite little area of the store at the moment - it is in the "soft furnishings" room. We have chosen a very muted colour scheme in this room, where the Gustavian centre table happily sits in the middle and a French bibliotheque holds vintage eiderdowns (see previous post at www.thedrillhallemporium.blogspot.com/2010/09/few-of-new-old-pieces-for-store.html). And in one of the corners of the room we have created a little vignette based upon a collection of 19th century glassware and a pair of grey painted mirrors. These mirrors are quite stylish, I imagine them in a bathroom above twin pedestal basins (if only I had the space for such luxury!).

This early 20th century Venetian glass mirror is on the opposite wall. It is quite petite but it is very charming.
