Impressive duo, eh? I have "etcetera', and sent the Stylist's Guide to my artist son in New Haven CT after looking it over. (He is an assistant archivist at the British Museum at Yale.) We have to try to get to a few places listed. I didn't know of Bowerbird. Probably fantastic. We love cabinets of curiosity too.
ReplyDeleteI knew if anyone had heard of them it would be you, Jacqueline! I'm a new convert but I love what I see here. I appreciate her ethos: "A global approach to interior style" as it's so like the Colonial style I love. Take care and thanks for stopping by!
