Book Review: Delectable! Delicious! De-Lovely!
Summary: 5 Stars
Tony Duquette, is not for everyone, but for all those enthralled by interior design, this is a must have for your library. This volume is sublime from start to finish. For me, he was one of the great talents in the world of interior decoration and this volume pays an hommage as great as the man. An exceptional look at an exceptional talent! An exquisite volume!
