Outside, the world lay cold and white; but inside, the Conservatory blooms. It is a place where marble deities hold silent vigil, and chandeliers sparkle like constellations in the vaulted glass ceiling.
By day, light pours through the lofty windows and snow-dusted skylights, catching on crystal, silver, and gold, brushing over oil paintings with gilded frames. By night, the chandeliers come alive, casting webs of silver light over the rich tapestry of the room below.
The dining table is formally set beneath the watchful eyes of mythic, stone figures; flames dance atop the tablescape, casting flickers across fine silver and china. Platters of citrus and wild herbs mingle with evergreen boughs, perfuming the air with a nostalgic earthy, resinous sweetness.
The Conservatory is tailored in fine fabrics from James Crossing and House of Hackney. Foliage, trinkets, and garden nymphs from Southlands Nursery, entangled with florals and greenery from The Flower Factory, breathe life into every corner.
Local and traveled antiques from The Antique Warehouse and Scott Landon Antiques share their eccentric stories of distant memories with the Conservatory's holiday guests. Gild & Co.'s furnishings and delightful treasures add an old-world charm, while the table finery from Echo's China offers traditional sophistication.
Formwerks Interiors designed this room to speak to past traditions of Yuletide, while embracing the essence of the Conservatory with the wonder and mystery of a winter garden. The warmth of Christmas gatherings is delicately connected to the lush gardens of Cecil Green.
Surrounded by verdure and stone, the Conservatory blossoms like a secret garden—lush, eternal, and green.
