 The Marie Antoinette Suite is accessed from the main restaurant . According to Marcus Binney " the gilded detail of the room has the lustre and crispness of gilt bronze , even the egg @-@ and @-@ dart in the boldly modelled cornice " . Floral motifs are a common feature of the room , given the namesake , Marie Antoinette , and represents the flowers at one of her feasts . Over the overmantel is a basket of flowers , with " flowers spilling out over the frames of the oval lunettes " . In the small entrance lobby of the suite are two terracotta statues of Spring and Summer , with " drum @-@ shaped pedestals ornamented with gilt @-@ bronze flowers and ribbons " . The ventilation grilles , of considerable size , are decorated in bronzed lattice . On the walls are a series lamp holders held by miniature Apollo lyres , with each bulb holder containing around 25 leaves opened out . The lights , according to Binney , are hung on " cords from ribbons tied in bows , entwined at intervals with flowers , descending to a cluster of tassels " . The panels of the walls are treated like picture frames , with inner and outer mouldings , in contrast to the window frames and the wall mirrors which are surrounded by " clusters of reeds , with an inset behind which a curtain could hang without obscuring the moulding " , according to Binney .
