Banesa e Hamit Kalasë
Ethnographic Museum
Principal entertaining room
Krujë, Albania
The extraordinary elegance of this reception room attests to the wealth of the Toptani family. Located in the projecting bay of the residence with four windows facing southwest, this room has an optimal situation and view. The ceiling and wall cabinets are detailed in fine woodcarving, while furs, textiles and carpets soften the spaces for sitting and reclining. This space was reserved for men, with an adjacent enclosed gallery for women.
