Even though I’m allergic to hyacinths, I’m inspired to replicate these pots. I’m still a little surprised they are sitting on an important Duncan Phyfe rosewood games table at @carswellrushberlin at @thewintershownyc. I’ll post a pic of the entire table in Stories later because it’s pretty amazing. The show runs through February 2nd so you have some time to stop by. #thewintershow #antiques #duncanphyfe #hyacinths (at The Winter Show) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7uHoP2HzEq/?igshid=19kax9oyp1f93

In 1983 photographer Deborah Turbeville cast her gauzy gaze over the freshly minted New York apartment of her friend Paul Walter. An inveterate collector with wide ranging and, often, idiosyncratic caprices, Walter just moved into his new East River apartment, which he had collaborated on with architectural designer Mark Kaminski and interior designer Mark Hampton, whose sole role was to accommodate and curate Walter's ever-expanding collections. Turbeville's otherworldly photography, featured in House & Garden magazine that year, imbue these now famous rooms with a veil of mystery and yearning as the contents of the late collector go on auction with @christiesinc NYC this September. #paulwalter #collector #photography #deborahturbeville #architect #markkaminski #interiordesigner #markhampton #benjamingoodison #gilt #pedestal #duncanphyfe #sofa #ethereal #atmosphere #thecollectors #nonchalance #eclectic #endofanera #1980sdesign #interiordesign #theartofphotography #theartoftheroom #inspiredspaces

Box Sofa, Duncan Phyfe, 1820, Art Institute of Chicago: American Art

Unlike its predecessors in the Federal period, this box sofa exhibits a pronounced rectilinear form that draws the eye to its luxurious materials. Its bold shape reflects the influence of contemporary French Restoration–style furniture, which was both imported to the United States and made domestically by immigrant cabinetmakers such as Charles-Honoré Lannuier and Duncan Phyfe. Restricted gifts of The Antiquarian Society and Mrs. Herbert A. Vance Size: 85.7 × 208.3 × 69.2 cm (33 3/4 × 82 × 27 1/4 in.) Medium: Rosewood and gilded wood, with ormolu mounts, die-stamped brass inlay inset with rosewood, brass stringing, and gilt-brass castors
