Princess Mary's meetings were held within her home, and she was pictured sat at a glossy walnut oval-shaped table with her guests. A tray in the middle held a crystal water jug and black-and-gold cafetière, with gold-trimmed mugs for them to drink out of. The opulent gold accents feature prominently throughout the room, with metallic trims around the door frames and on the walls.
