After that we went over to our house to the upper floor & settled what changes we would have made & wh room we wd choose for our bedroom &c. We then came home & lunched. Afterwards Henry went off to Burano to see the “Artisti” & Countess Marcello fetched me & we went to see the Pallestrina lace depot & saw there some silk lace (guipure) wh had been made for Ct Papadopoli’s new house. The lace alone costing 2000 fcs a chair. We then went to the Murano Co shop & chose some glasses for Maria & then home.
