While at first glance it would appear to be in dedication to Charles' sister, the late Princess of Wales, it was in fact a tribute to another royal family member, Princess Alexandra of Denmark, who married the son of Queen Victoria, Prince Albert Edward.

The stunning bedroom came up whilst in Karen's email newsletter whilst she discussed the magnificent clock collection featured at her home.
