The legendary Trianon Palace
hotel and spa in Versailles, France where the likes of Marcel Proust ,

Get access "To the trade"
Ever see something in a magazine - fabric, furniture, wallpaper or accessories - that you just love, but it's listed as "To the Trade"? For those who don't know, this means that the vendor only sells to designers or other similar design trade professionals. If you've been frustrated by the fact that you don't want to hire a designer just to purchase a single item, then this service is for you. |
