A trip to the Wallace Collection is a nice place to wander through while having a chat with a friend on a rainy London day.
This museum gets forgotten among the heavyweights of the
British Musuem and National Gallery
but it is perfect for a little cultural injection.
It used to be a private home so is a perfect backdrop for many of the grand objets d'arts the collection houses. It also is a popular venue for private and corporate parties.
They have something for everyone.
Don't let the Game of thrones extra throw you.
They also happen to a sizable collection of the Sevres porcelain outside Versailles that was commissioned by Louis XV and
his mistress madame de Pompadour.
I can't get over the still vibrant blue and
the ever stylish design below.
But not only do they have precious items but the rooms themselves are a pleasure to pass through.
I think all the rooms with the silk walls are perfect.
