Description
Sunday morning in a guest room at a manor house in the Loire Valley. The shutters are half open, birdsong drifts in, and on the bed lies a nightgown of white lawn, edged in lace, waiting for its owner to return from her bath. The coverlet is embroidered with tiny flowers, the pillows are plump, and a breakfast tray with croissants and a single rose is on its way up the stairs. There is nowhere to be, nothing to do and all the time in the world. Somewhere downstairs, a kettle begins to sing.
This box captures that luxurious, lingering calm, a bed with a nightgown laid out, floral motifs and fine gold detailing. It is a charming gift for a bride on her wedding morning, a friend who has just redecorated a bedroom or someone who deserves a little pampering. Set it on a nightstand, a vanity or a dresser, and use it to keep earrings, a ring or a sleep-mask charm safe overnight. The florals and gold trim lend it the air of a grand old hotel suite, scaled down to fit in the hand.
