There are comparatively few people who at one time or another do not have to face the problem of household furniture and decoration. The author of this volume describes certain undeniable principles of household decoration, and illustrates them by presenting photographs of the interiors of beautiful private homes, none of which are owned by people of great wealth. Chapters on the hall, the drawing room, the dining room, the library, the den, bedrooms, walls and ceilings, floors, windows and doors, small ornaments, walls and hedges, and more. An attractive volume for the connoisseur of Victorian interior style.
