Queen's Robing Room, Houses of Parliament

Located between the Victoria Tower and the Royal Gallery in Westminster Palace, the Queen's Robing Room is used by the Queen of England to don her royal attire (including her royal crown) before the opening of the Houses of Parliament.

Salviati decorated the room's fireplace - designed by E.M. Barry and installed between 1864-66 - with enamel mosaics.

Scheibler Palace, Lodz

This neo-Renaissance building was rebuilt in 1886-88 for Lodz's "Cotton King" Karl Wilhelm Scheibler .

The front elevation today.

The rear elevation before 1901.

Salviati decorated the fireplace mantle in Scheibler's office with a mosaic of a gypsy woman (or alternately called a Turkish woman).  A stand-alone, identical mosaic dated 1884 was sold in 2011 by a private collector in Connecticut for $32,500 through Christie's auction house.

The figure in the mosaic bears an uncanny resemblance to the woman in Pre-Raphaelite John William Waterhouse's 1873 painting "The Unwelcome Companion", including the tilt of her head and the shawl across her abdomen.

The building now houses the Lodz Film Museum, but a large part of the residence has also been preserved.

Bestwood Lodge, Nottingham

A royal hunting lodge existed at this location as early as the 14th century. However, this specific great country house was designed for William Beauclerk, tenth Duke of St. Albans by S.S. Teulon and built 1862-65.

Salviati mosaics decorated the fireplace mantles in both the drawing room and the dining room.

Unfortunately, an 1893 fire originating in the drawing room caused significant damage, including destroying 25 paintings. At one point in the 20th century, it was used by the British Army, but since the mid-1970s, the lodge has been a Best Western hotel.
