Fairy Castle Cinderella's Drawing Room

Below, is the Cinderella Drawing Room. The floor was made in China years ago and is of rose quartz and jade. The chandelier hanging in the center of the room is gold, hung with real diamonds and emeralds and pearls. To the left you can see a little chess table just waiting for the wee folk to come and play. The painting on the wall is of Cinderella. The vases at each side of the door going into the great hall, are made of carved amber over 500 years old. They came from the collection of the Dowager Empress of China.

Fairy Castle Prince's Bathroom

Upstairs is the bathroom of the Prince. It is made of alabaster. The mirror over the shell-like wash basin is gold set with a sapphire surrounded by diamonds. The gold Japanese chest is about 500 years old.

Fairy Castle Prince's Bedroom

Next to the bath is the bedroom of the Prince. This tells the story of the Russian Little Czar, Saltur. The story is carved in the furniture. The polar bear, of course, was shot by the Prince. It's really an ermine skin, with a mouse's teeth. The sword standing by the wardrobe is Excalibur, King Arthur's sword.

Now let's go around the corner to look at the Great Hall.

Look closely at the large picture of Cinderella's Drawing Room. On the round silver table to the right of the piano sits a portrait of a girl in a silver frame. This is a portrait of Colleen Moore done by her friend, James Montgomery Flagg
