A circa-1900 staircase of Pietra Serena stone in one of the palazzo’s two stair halls. “We removed four layers of paint to get to the original green,” says Raffaella Vignatelli. The 1930s trompe l’oeil windows were painted by Cesare Camporesi, and the chandelier is also from the 1930s.

SITTING ROOM
