"I have about 25 of my closest friends to seat in this room every Friday evening after dinner," she reported, "not sure how to pull that off..."

Maybe if I take sustainably harvested deer antlers and compact them tightly, then section off the whole piece like a long rice crispy treat, capped with leather that's adorned with gilded tooling to match the stencil work on the ceiling recreated from photo documents? Done. Pack 'em in, Nancy! Plenty of room for everyone. Photography by Steve Voelker
