...entire scheme is an essay in riotous cod rococo: swagged chintz, contorted gilt (even the bathroom fittings are gold-plated) and vibrant color (the bedroom juxtaposes canary yellow with magenta). The penthouse walls are decorated with gesso oak branches mounted on mirror to evoke the tangled briars that grew up around Sleeping Beauty's castle. There are lamp fittings shaped like birdcages, twig-like door handles on which perch golden birds, a tented ceiling, painted silk walls and an abundance of cherubs and shells, as well as a number of watercolors by Messel, two of them designs for The Sleeping...

...Dorchester. The result, which opened in 1953 and has been restored but never altered, is truly fit for a princess. The entire scheme is an essay in riotous cod rococo: swagged chintz, contorted gilt (even the bathroom fittings are gold-plated) and vibrant color (the bedroom juxtaposes canary yellow with magenta). The penthouse walls are decorated with gesso oak branches mounted on mirror to evoke the tangled briars that grew up around Sleeping Beauty's castle.
