Architectural Specialty Features and History
Den Doors
Purchased at Demolition Depot and Irreplaceable Artifacts, NYC
Two sets of doors, designed and created by Renzo Mongiardino for the NYC apartment of Aristotle Onasis. One set is bullet proof.
Mongiardino was one of the most sought after interior designers of the jet society in the 1960's and 1970's, creating sumptuous classic interiors for clients including Marie-Helene and Guy de Rothschild, Gianni Versace, Lee Radziwell, and Valentino Garavani.
The panels in the coffered ceiling were created following the same design and executed by C&F designs Co.
Koi Stair Posts
Also purchased at Demolition Depot and Irreplaceable Artifacts, NYC.
These iron Koi came from the estate of Betsy Roosevelt Whitney and John Hay Whitney. Betsy was one of the famous Cushing sisters. They were like movie stars, setting trends and fashions, leading glamorous lives. Their marriages catapulted them into a world of wealth and power. Betsy married James Roosevelt and as FDR's daughter-in-law, became his unofficial hostess at the White House. When her marriage to Jimmy Roosevelt ended she became Mrs. Whitney, one of the richest women in the world. It was conveyed to the owners, that Mrs. Whitney loved these koi so much that she had them pulled out of one of her previous homes to be installed in the home she was residing in.
