I do like the depression era glassware on your table stand.... lol, and I'm no where near the same age!
As for Mom ... hmmm ... she did raise you ... so, you could always bring that up 
But she as any women is still always correct in their assumptions! |
ACCCK..no depression glass on my table...The amber decanter is Bohemian glass, and the vase is cut crystal similar to Hawkes. The sterling teapot is Porter Blanchard and the box Tiffany.
The ceiling wallpaper was Anaglypt from the UK and was faux finished, the mantle was also faux finished. One had to be 2 feet away and looking to tell the diff from marble.. The painting behind the lamp is a David Roberts RA. The table is Baker Stately Homes reproduction of a table in the Duke of Argyls home.
Just call me Maurice as I was the designer, I just could not bring myself to pay for professional services. So I learned how to do it.
The day the faux finisher was painting the mantle I was sitting drinking Gin and Tonics..of course at the end of the day I offered him one as well. Which he accepted.
