Welcome to the Draper’s new living room (which I’m not too crazy about. It’s kind of like Kelly Wearstler on Thorazine! Bring back Dot!):
*A Chinoiserie breakfront — French name for ‘Chinese Style’ cabinet. Sometimes this style is called Chinese regency.
*Japanese influenced Dunbar couch — a low slung and brass footed couch is a staple of Mid Century design. I assume the ‘Japan’ twist are the sharp angled armrests.
*Dupoini Silk drapes — This is the shiny silk that’s also used to make prom dresses.
*Murano vases — glass blown Venetian style; transparent kind.
*Drexel endtable —  Drexel was a rung up the class ladder from Crate & Barrel in its day.
*The wall paper is Eggplant colored grasscloth.
*Then, of course, the Victorian fainting couch for the woozy lady in a constricting corset.
