When Lights
are Low
When entertaining, Eleanor Ford believed everyone looked
more flattering by candlelight, which explains why tour visitors
to the dining room of her historic Grosse Pointe Shores mansion
won’t see a chandelier. There’s nothing quite like candlelight to
bring warm ambience to a room, but dimly lighted electric fixtures
impart a similar effect. Like the dancing flames of a fireplace,
the lambent glow of low light injects instant atmosphere.
