Dinner for 12

The dining room table had a beautiful mosaic surface, covered by the tablecloth, but one of the leaves was on display by the window.

A subsequent note: I read in the estate guide that the table can seat up to 30 with the inclusion of all the leaves.

The icon room, posted earlier:

Wow, such elegance! I would have been uncomfortable eating at one of the meals held there.

Oh my goodness! I would be afraid to eat from a table set up like this, but I am also sure I would never get an invitation to eat at a table like this. :-)
