The chamber of Mlle. Gaudry (1708) had in it a bed, a _fauteuil de commodité_, five folding-seats, and two _bureaux_. The bed, composed of three outside hangings, three large curtains, two _bonnes grâces_, valances, and pommes, was draped in crimson Lyons damask, trimmed with a braid of aurora-coloured silk. The seats were upholstered in red velvet, trimmed with red and aurora-coloured silk. One of the _bureaux_ was covered with a carpet of red leather, lined with red serge; the leather carpet of the other was lined with green serge. The apartments of the Duke of Orleans at Versailles in 1708 consisted of an antechamber, a chamber, a cabinet and a _garde-robe_ beside the chamber. The antechamber was hung with gold leather on a red background, the designs representing branches and masques of gold, and children and birds in natural hues. An eight-leaved screen, seven feet high, a form covered with red moquette and the lower part of an _armoire_ furnished this room. The chamber contained a bed, four _fauteuils_, three chairs with backs, six folding-stools, two screens, a table, a _bureau en commode_, two _guéridons_, a _fauteuil de commodité_ and six _tabourets_. The window-curtains were of white damask, trimmed with gold fringe, but the room was hung with red velvet of a design of small branches, trimmed with gold braid. The _portières_, lined with taffeta, were also of this material. The outside draperies of the bed, which was 6½ feet long, 6 feet, 3 inches wide and 10 feet, 10 inches high, were of the same red velvet, trimmed with gold braid and fringe, but the inside curtains, headboard, etc., were of gold watered silk. In the centre of the headboard was a cypher and a _fleur-de-lis_. The canopy was decorated with four red velvet _pommes_, upon each of which was a bunch of white feathers. The frames of all the seats were painted red picked out with gold. One of the screens had a gilded frame and was covered with red velvet; the other, covered with red damask with a design of crowns and gold and silver flowers, ornamented with gold braid and a double fringe of gold and silver, was supported by a stem of gilded wood on three console feet. The _bureau en commode_ was of walnut, as was also the small table. The latter was inlaid with ebony, contained a drawer and stood on four twisted columns. This had two table carpets, one of red velvet, lined with taffeta and trimmed with gold braid and gold fringe trailing over the floor; the other, of leather, lined with serge and trimmed with gold braid. The _bureau en commode_ had two large drawers with iron rings. The two tables were of black Chinese lacquer ornamented with gold. They were each 3 feet, 5 inches high, the leg of each resting on three women’s heads of gilt bronze. The _fauteuil de commodité_ was of crimson damask, trimmed with gold and silver fringe, and its frame painted red picked out with gold. The wood of the six _tabourets_ was
