Entrance Hall and Main Staircase The guide standing on the main staircase is Joanne Scott. She had been dusting the rooms with her feather duster as she guided me around the castle to take photos. The two hanging kilim-weave carpets with 'tree of life' design are from Craiova (NE Romania). They date from around 1900. Ref. The booklet, 'Lauriston Castle: An Edinburgh villa' (City of Edinburgh Museums & Galleries). |
