Hands decide as much as eyes. We bring linen, wool, and velvet samples to sit beside your wood tones. Sepia and parchment bases keep pairings calm while a single richer cloth becomes the accent.
Sun-fade risk on south windows is discussed with honest fabric choices.
Curtains as mediators
Window cloth can quiet ornate furniture against plain walls. Fullness and stack-back are drawn so radiators and window handles still work.

Sizes are taped on floor before purchase.
Cushions and restraint
Too many cushions turn antiques into prop storage. We edit to a few purposeful shapes.
