Paula’s linens brought the table to life at many a carefully crafted dinner gathering. Her presence remains in the spaces she created and objects she chose, and through stories of her unsentimental but emphatic care for people, things, ideas.
In these early months of stewarding the Merwins’ house, we are making discoveries that surprise and delight us. As we go, we’ll share some of these finds with you in a new series called “Storied Objects.” To view other posts in the “Storied Objects” series, click here.
Love this clip of Paula’s colorful tropical linens, beautifully stacked in a fabulous old French etagere—with door that creaks like a live character!
