A boucle-weave casement cloth under curtain eliminated the use of blinds. Outside draperies supplied most of the color accents in the room. Wall coverings in this room were of imported Japanese grass cloth. The table had a drop leaf which extended the surface to 72" x 30". All rooms featured antique-framed mirrors hung off center above 66-inch Mr. and Mrs. Chests. All guest room furniture was made in Barker Brother's factory.
