The Récamier sofa in the center of the library drawing room came from a scheme by the American decorator Sister Parish. Studio Peregalli covered it in custom-dyed marmalade silk velvet. On the left are a marble-top Louis XV table, a white-painted needlepoint Louis XV bergère chair and a 1850s gesso slipper chair upholstered in lilac watered silk. The 1961 portrait of the Queen is by Alfred Kingsley Lawrence, and the obelisk bookcase is an early David Hicks design – its coloring exactly matched the scheme chosen for the library. The mid-18th-century etchings hanging on the frieze above the panelling are by Charles Nicholas Cochin.
