Living Room and Dining Area of Anne Fuller's Connecticut Home, Vogue

The living room and dining area in socialite Anne Fuller's home in Stonington, Connecticut (converted from the former First Baptist Church of Stonington by her husband, architect Charles Fuller). In the immediate foreground is a white-cushioned chair made from American Buffalo horns; next to it, a blue-on-white porcelain vase filled with orchids sits atop a glass-topped table. The floor is covered with beige flatwoven rugs, and at the center is a low table with curved sides, holding a white and gold vase, and accompanied by two small wood stools. Behind the table is a long carved wood couch with a broken pedimented backrest crowned with a scallop shell; purple cushions cover the couch. In the dining area, the wall is paneled with white pegboard; a wood sideboard holds several large bottles and containers between a pair of short silver candlesticks; and a pair of small white shelves, holding hurricane lamps, sculpted with scrollwork and horse heads flank an oval painting from Surabaja, Indonesia, depicting a pith-helmeted hunter shooting crocodiles from a canoe.
