BORROWED


One can’t help but feel a sense of warmth
emanating from the antiques within
Melissa Levinson’s showroom. If these French
and Italian pieces have lost any luster over
time, it has been more than breathed back in
by her passion and eye for design.

ceiling, scattering beads of light and an aura of romance


upon the claw-foot tables, caned sofas, and carved statuettes.
