(IN)DECOROUS TASTE: A Hunting We Shall Go...
http://www.indecoroustaste.com/2009/12/hunting-we-shall-go.html
A Hunting We Shall Go. I am infatuated with trophy rooms. This is a recent development. It's disturbing, the way this bizarre fascination crept up on me. Disgust morphed into curiosity, and before I knew it (um, was I sleeping while this transformation took place? I found myself, glazed over like a zombie, eyeballs blue from the computer-glow, researching antique taxidermy at 3 in the morning. You might remember this room. Smoking a cigar (or is a pipe more fitting? Posted by (IN)DECOROUS TASTE. The wall...

(IN)DECOROUS TASTE: Campari and Cope
http://www.indecoroustaste.com/2009/09/campari-and-cope.html
One of my most insanely gorgeous and exciting purchases was this very old cope (of the ecclesiastical vestment variety). I acquired it on ebay, it shipped from France, and it found me on the hottest day of the summer drinking bitter spritzes. Anyone who hasn't tried a bitter spritz absolutely needs to. Little bars in Venice serve these drinks by the pitcher, along with salty snacks. Mix:. Or other dry sparkling wine),. Splash of mineral water. And then, a eureka moment! The cope fits perfectly.

(IN)DECOROUS TASTE: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?
http://www.indecoroustaste.com/2009/10/guess-whos-coming-to-dinner.html
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? I have a running joke with my mom that some of the chairs we've created over the years have (very much inadvertently, if you can believe it) taken on the personas of major fashion designers and artists. Put them in a room together, and you have one heck of an A-list party.of chairs. We even refer to them by their given names: "Have you seen Karl (Lagerfeld)? So who's coming to dinner, you ask? Karl Lagerfeld, clad in painted canvas upholstery:. Posted by (IN)DECOROUS TASTE.

(IN)DECOROUS TASTE: Eye Phones
http://www.indecoroustaste.com/2012/01/eye-phones.html
When misplacing your cell feels like losing a limb, I wonder if it's actually a phone, or more like a third arm or possibly an external brain supplement. Eyephone, indeed. I created these little beasts from hornback caiman crocodile and polished galuchat (stingray). Not to toot my own horn(back, ahahahaa) but I also hand painted them. What was unexpected was how lovely the gold turned out over the stingray. It glistens like a gem. Posted by (IN)DECOROUS TASTE. January 13, 2012 at 1:33 PM. I LIKE it ;).

They told me, Francis Hinsley, they told me you were hung. With red protruding eye-balls and black protruding tongue. Evelyn Waugh, The Loved One. Has anyone read The Loved One? Or seen the film version? Ohhhh you must if you haven't. Liberace plays a casket salesman and if that isn't enough to make you run to your video store now, then we just can't be friends, okay? But yes, I decided I wanted to beef up the tongue. With jet black mink. Fairly simple, extremely gratifying. I cut it down to size so that...

http://www.indecoroustaste.com/2012/02/redux.html
Three years ago today, we started this little blog. Three years of sticking it to good taste, swinging from chandeliers and roasting harlequin chickens. Happy birthday, baby (IN)DECOROUS, we've had a few follies. We painted: Rooms (And rugs. And commodes. And pillows. And zebras.). And chairs. A love affair with chintz. We did some heavy lifting:. Our chairs played dress up. And so did we. A love affair with lucite. We wrote. About Florine:. And gabbed. About Tom Ford's tractors:. And then we made more.
