Chinoiserie Tour: On Location at Belvoir Castle

Caroline and Paloma are on location from Belvoir Castle during their recent tour of treasure houses and stately homes in the United Kingdom that hold original Chinoiserie wall hangiings. The two discuss their experience at Belvoir Castle, exploring the historical significance of chinoiserie design and original wallpapers. They also delve into the Met Gala and their favorite looks of the night. On the design front, the ladies tackle some "hot takes," and questions posed by listeners, including the art of styling bookshelves with books, the balance of mixing metals in a space, the choice of timeless wood finishes, the beauty and warmth of tapestries, and the one skill they each wish they had.TakeawaysChinoiserie design and historyMet Gala fashion Bookshelf stylingMixing metalsWood finish for floors Tapestries What new skill would you love to have?Chapters00:00 Exploring Beaver Castle and Chinoiserie Design35:15 Desired Skills and Talents
