Dark Heritage

A beautiful butterfly, trapped in a dark forest mansion.
With the return of gachas, deviousMind released the gorgeous and elaborate Papillon set. I admit, I did not have much luck, but the Marketplace helped me out so I at least could get covered. ;) And it seemed like a dark and a bit decadent setting would suit this look well, which I achieved using a selection of new pieces from DICTATORSHOPs Heritage collection. These are timeless pieces and in particular the aged leather look on the Salon Loveseat was perfect for this setup. The Loveseat is an Adult Vanilla piece with 169 animations available and a choice of 11 aged leathers, 10 wood and 5 metal textures. The Hope Chest is a pure decor piece, but with the same beautiful finishing and a choice of 10 woods and 5 metals. And the Rug cCllection is perfect for tying the room together, with three different rug shapes and 8 textures to choose from. The lamps are also from the Heritage range, but those I have featured before as well.
I also added a distinctly more gothic piece in the shape of a skull-adorned mirror from Petrichor. I just love the texture of the mirror glass, it has some lovely aging and distortion to it. And the materials on the frame are gorgeous. Speaking of materials, do take a closer look at the Beach Day hair from Truth and Wasabi. It has some amazing materials added which look stunning in shifting light.
