Culture Cravings

[Cultured Cravings, Entry]
Panels of silk are arranged in layers around a central support ring to form a peaked roof that is swirled with color.

A circular velveteen settee is set at the center of the room beneath frosted, mutihued glass globes that are suspended from twisted wrought iron poles.
