Oh, to have ROOM for "folly"!
AND that gorgeous green-backed hutch! I could so see that with white-lacquered Chinese/Chippendale chairs.
patrick (the other one) - if I win the lotto someday can I hire you to decorate my home? That green-backed hutch made me weak in the knees...sigh........

lotto....lotto....lotto
