Surreal Dining
This is perhaps my favorite dining room of all time. I tore this picture out of an Architectural Digest many years ago. It's from the home of Helena Rubenstein in which she commissioned Salvador Dali to paint a mural for her. This photo shows one of three panels he painted. This interior is just dreamy with the cerulean blue glass, creamy walls, and glamourous lucite chairs (and of course that painting).
Here's what Architectural Digest had to say about it...
After digging around on the internet, I've found another panel of the mural. But, there's still one missing. Does anyone know where I can find it?
And, for a small fortune ($3200/each) you can buy lucite chairs very similar to the ones that Helena Rubenstein had at The Paris Apartment (the main difference I see is that these do not have the etching that Helena's had). This is a very fun site to explore with lots of glamorous French furnishings. And, they have a book that looks stunning.




The 3rd panel Dali is probably part of a private collection, not released for the public. Hopefully we’ll get to see it someday!
Can’t WAIT to see you soon!!!!!!
