General note
Original furniture includes Hepplewhite chairs with curvilinear, heart-shaped backs and oval dining and side tables. These were designed for the dining room and continue the theme of this oval shaped room, which includes glazed, paneled china cupboards, access doors set into the curve, a convex shaped fireplace and elegant, restrained mouldings on the walls. --Susan Wagg, Percy Erskine Nobbs: Architect, Artist, Craftsman (Montreal: McGill-Queen’s University Press, 1982) , 26.
