The image is from an article published in 2006 in the late Blueprint magazine.
At the time of publication, the “Persian Rose Garden” rug by Megan Park, was available from the Rug Company, 212-274-0444. The Queen Anne dining table base kit was from tablelegs.com, and the Tabletop fabrication was by Jeremy Savian Woodwork, jeremysavian.com.
