This image shows the furniture in Katherine Mackay's suite. Imported highly figured French walnut boiseries, with furniture supplied by Allard en-suite, were both upholstered with panels of mauve damask, woven with a custom pattern of cherubs disporting amongst flowers. Vessels as disparate as small steins, Chinese baluster vases and cut glass beakers, mounted in gold, all held bouquets of the orchids that Katherine adored.
