Known for high-quality finishes on the splurge-worthy end of the spectrum, Julian Chichester has mastered the arts of silver and gold leaf, mirrored paneling, and eglomise painted glass. Who better to look to for metallic color pairings? Most of the company's roomsets combine metallics with pale blues, icy grays, and the occasional warm spot thrown in the mix - the perfect palette for winter...

That is a real miss in the first picture- the wood stacking type chairs are cute, but too small and casual for that oval table. The table is needing something more elegant.

I love the round greenish blue mirror in the third picture and that small wood carved desk is divine.

Beautiful post, but I would submit that this palette is actually perfect for summer; for winter I want a warmer, cozier scheme.
