The Chinoiserie China Closet

I would love to have a china closet or butler's pantry for my blue and white Chinese porcelain collection. Above and below is John Rosselli's display. I'm hoping to incorporate a more modest version of this in my laundry room renovation.


Bunny Williams (married to John Rosselli).


I adore the blue/green walls with all the monochromatic china.

  3. WOW!!! I confess to some serious, over-the-top china/storage space envy here. I'd love to pick out a pair of vases or urns to have made into lamps, but I fear everything I see in this post is just too precious to do that. So lovely!
    Thank you!

  12. My china is in boxes in my garage! My house has no wall space for giant cabinets. Wisj I could build some. Love the Carolyn Roehm cupboard.
