All the furniture is painted very gaily upon a cream or white background--with a gaiety that has a touch of the Orient in it.

The bed is hidden behind painted woodwork in the wall, like a berth, and is gained by a little flight of movable steps, also radiant.

I never saw so happy a room.

On the wall is a cabinet of curios and silver ornaments.
The larger room is similiar but more costly.

On the wall are fine Delft plates, and seated at the table are wax Hindeloopeners: a man with a clay pipe and tobacco box, wearing a long flowered waistcoat, a crossed white neckcloth and black coat and hat--not unlike a Quaker in festival attire; and his neat and very picturesque women folk are around him.
