The music room, also known as the reception room, is richly ornamented, with gilded details on the walls, a herringbone pattern on the floor, and a French cut-crystal lighting fixture. The staircase is nearly as ornate as the one in the foyer; the mahogany banister had originally been covered in velvet. Some of the ceiling moldings are actually made not of plaster, but of glue, heated and shaped.
