The furniture is mainly American from the 1950’s and 60’s and except for the large chest in the centre of the room, which is an antique flour chest from the Swat region of Pakistan. Dividing the room is a brass and rosewood screen matching some of the other beautifully carved and engraved rosewood again from Pakistan.
The paintings on the walls, include the magnificent “Fulani Water Carriers”, from Nigeria. The medieval standing knight of the realm (guarding the wood-burning stove) and copper bedpans are from Britain given to Paul by his father to remind him of his home in Wales. There are double French doors that open onto the deck where the gas fired BBQ sits.
