ʻO kahi wahine hōʻeuʻeu a me kahi hōʻailona hōʻailona
Ua hoʻolauleʻaʻo Margaret Greville i ka hale noho o ke aupuni Edwardian e haʻalele i kona home,ʻo Polesden Lacey, i kaʻohana aliʻi. Ua haʻaleleʻo ia iā lākou i kāna mau taimimana a haʻalele i ka hale nani i ka National Trust i hiki iā mākou keʻoliʻoli a pau.
ʻO ke kāpena naniʻo Boucheron i hoʻohana pinepineʻia e ka wahine a Charles Charles,ʻo Camilla, Duchess o Cornwall (e like me ke kiʻiʻia maʻaneʻi), he hapa o ka Greville Bequest, he mea kupanaha o nā diamana, nā peal, emeralds a me nā lelo i waihoʻia i ka Mō'īwahine Elizabeth, ka Mō'ī Wahinewahine , na kāna hoaaloha kokoke a me confidate Maggie Greville.
Peheaʻo Elizabeth Bowes Lyon (ka Queen Mum) i noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ka nalowaleʻana o ka hale he mea koho. ʻO nā mākua o Queenwahine,ʻo Elisabeta a me Bertie (ʻo ia hoʻi ka Mō'ī George VI) i hui pūʻia ai a kauʻia ma Polesden Lacey, ko lākou mahalo i ka mea nāna i mālama,ʻo Maggie Greville lāuaʻo Bertie makuahine,ʻo Mō'īwahine Mary. Ua hoʻolimalima lākou i kā lākou minuke ma laila.
I kēlā manawa,ʻo ia ke keiki'ōpiopio a ke aliʻi a nele i ka hale nani a me ka waiwai waiwai e like me Polesden. Akā i ka wā i hoʻokuʻuʻia ai kona kaikuaʻana (Edward VIII) "no ka wahine aʻu i aloha ai", ua liloʻo Bertie lāuaʻo Elizabeth i Mō'ī a me Mō'īwahine Consort me ka hale aliʻi , ka hale aliʻi a me kekahi mau'āina'āina e kīkēkē i loko.ʻAʻole lākou i pono iā Polesden Lacey hou. Malia pahaʻo ia ke kumu i hōʻeuʻeu aiʻo Maggie i kāna'ōlelo hoʻohiki.
ʻO waiʻo Maggie Greville, ka wahine punahele me ka mea nui loa?
Pehea i kū ai ka kaikamahineʻoiaʻiʻo o ka mea Scottish a me ka hale noho hale e lilo i mea pili aliʻi a pili aloha, nā mō'ī nui o Helene a me Sepania, nā hīmeni kiʻi a me nā mea kaulana he moʻolelo kupanaha e hōʻikeʻia ana i kāu huakaʻi i Polesden Lacey .
I ka manawa i komo aiʻo ia i loko o kaʻahahui, ma ka hopena o ka makahiki 1900, ua hoʻolakoʻia e kona makuakāne makuakāne i kahi moʻolelo koʻikoʻi no kona hānauʻana, uaʻike malūʻo ia i kāna aʻoʻana, a ua hopeʻo ia e mare me kona makuahine a ua hōʻoiaʻo iaʻo ia kona hoʻoilina.
Malia pahaʻo ka mea maikaʻi loa āna i hana ai no ia,ʻo ia ke hoʻohanohano i kona kūlanaʻoiai he wahine wahine nāna e hoʻopuka i ka pili pono Hon.Ronald Greville (he hoʻoilina a me ka nele i ke kālā) no ke kāne.
Mahele o ka hui kaiaulu i hoʻokomo iā Edward, Prince of Wales (ma hope aku o ka Mō'ī Edward VII), ua hoʻopukaʻo Greville i Maggie i loko o ka hui kaiaulu. "ʻO Mrs. Ronnie",ʻoiai i hele maiʻo ia eʻikeʻia, he maʻalahi a akamai nuiʻo ia e mālama i nā mea i koe.
E pili ana i kēlā mau kelena
Hiki iāʻoe keʻike kokoke i ka Greville tiara (kahi kope pololei i hanaʻia i nā kilokilo a me ka pīkāka maoli) i kou wā e hele ai i Polesden Lacey, hāmama a puni ka makahiki a me kahi ala pōkole mai Lākana mai.
Aia kahi kūlana kūpono i kaʻoiaʻiʻoʻo Camilla ka mō'ī e hāʻawi pinepine ana i nā gilane Gregel.
ʻO Ronald Greville kahi māhele o ka pāʻani pili'ē a me ka hoʻokele i hoʻokomoʻia i loko o kona hoaaloha'ōpiopio kokoke iā George Keppel a me ke Aliʻi o Wales. ʻO Alice ka wahine a Keppel, a liloʻo Alice i mea maikaʻi loa ma Maggie. I ka wā i lilo aiʻo Prince o Wales i Aliʻi Edward VII, ua liloʻo Alice i mō'ī hope loa a punahele loa (kapaʻiaʻo iaʻo "Kingy.") Ua halaʻo Alice a me ka Mō'ī i nā wahi hauʻoli nui ma Polesden Lacey i loko o nā keʻena i hoʻonuiʻia i ka hale ʻO Alice Keppelʻo ke kupunawahine kupuna o Camilla ke kaikamahine a Alice,ʻo Sonia Keppel,ʻo ia ka moʻopuna wahine a Maggie a me ke kupunawahine o Camilla aʻo wai ka makuakāne maoli o Sonia?ʻAe, inā wale nō nā pā o Polesden Lacey e hiki ke kamaʻilio.
I ka manawa i kūʻai aku aiʻo Maggie lāuaʻo Ronald Greville i ka waiwaiʻo Surrey i ka makahiki 1900,ʻo Polesden Lacey, i ka makahiki 1906, hoʻomaka lākou e hoʻohuli i kahi hale noho Neoclassical noho mālie a me kahi'āina hoʻolālā i kahi pahu nani o ka hale e pono ai e hoʻokipa aliʻi. Ua makeʻo Greville i ka makahiki 1908 ma mua o ka pauʻana o nā hana hoʻokala. Akā,ʻo Maggie ka wahine kāne make wahineʻoliʻoli,ʻo kona kūlana i ke aupuni o Edwardian i kēia wā ua pōhaku paʻa, ua hoʻomauʻia.
Ua hoʻolimalimaʻo ia i nā kāpena me Mewes a me Davis, nā mea nāna i hoʻonohonoho i ka Ritz Hotel ma Lākana , e kūkulu hou i ka hale - i ka manawa o ka home Richard Richardson Sheridan - i luna a lalo,ʻaʻohe mea i hoʻokuʻuʻia. He 200 mau lumi a me nā mea a ka poʻe Beritania i kapa aiʻo ia he "mod mod" a pau kekahi ma kēlā me kēia.
Ua hoʻoponopono ponoʻiaʻo Polesden. ʻO kona mau lumi hoʻokipa piha he mau teleponi a he lumi hale a pau - me ko lākou mau lumi lumi pono'ī - he mea aneaneʻole i loheʻia i kēlā manawa, a ma nā hale nui loa.
ʻO kona halekūkū kahi kiko'ī kūpono o nā balaʻau marble i ka Ritz i kēlā manawa. Inā makemakeʻoe e pili ana i nā lumi lumi o nā hōkele o Lākana e like me kona nui loa, ka lehulehu nui, makemake waleʻoe e hele i Polesden Lacey.
Ka Manaʻo Ma luna o nā mea a pau
I ka nīnauʻia e haʻi i nā'ōlelo'ōhumu a me nā'ōlelo hōʻino paha, e kaulana loaʻo Maggie Greville, "ʻAʻole wau e hahai i nā poʻe i loko o ko lākou lumi moe. A ua hanaʻo ia i nā mea a pau e hiki ai iā ia ke pale i ka pilikino o kāna mau malihini.
ʻO Mrs. Greville kekahi o nāʻeke mua i hoʻonohonoho ponoʻia i kahi hale noho. Ua heleʻo ia mai ka lumi lumi pūʻokoʻa o Mrs. Greville i kona lumi lumi lumi e hiki ai iā ia - aiʻole nā poʻe malihini kūikawā - hiki iā ia ke hoʻokuʻu maikaʻi me ka heleʻole i waena o kona hale hoʻokipa, a hiki paha iā ia ke hele i ka "saloon".
Ua hoʻokomoʻia kekahi'ēheu'ē aʻe i ka hale no ka mālamaʻana i ka hale o ke aliʻi i kūkuluʻia no King Edward VII. ʻO ka King's Suite - i kēia manawa i hoʻohanaʻia i lumi lumi lumi - hiki keʻikeʻia ma kahi o nā kiʻina "Manuahiʻole" o ka National Trust (e nānā i lalo).
ʻO ka hoʻomaluʻana i nā heleʻana a me nā heleʻana o kāna mau malihini ma kahi pā hale, he mea pono loa ia no Mrs. Greville a me kāna mau kauā. Ua heleʻo King Edward i kona hui ma mua i ka makahiki 1909.ʻOiai kāna kauā wahineʻo Mrs. Alice Keppel (kupuna kupuna o Duchess o Cornwall - Camilla Parker-Bowles) aʻo kāna kāne pū kekahi. Akā, pēlā nō kona haku wahine a me kāna kāne!
ʻO nā kauā lawelawe a me nā mea'ē aʻe
I kona makemake, ua haʻaleleʻo Mrs. Greville i nā kuʻi aloha i kahi pūʻali koa o nā lawelawe, aʻo kekahi o lākou i hana iā ia i kāna mau hana a pau. Akā,ʻaʻole hiki ke heluʻia nā mea a pau i hana ma Polesden Lacey no ka mālamaʻana i ka noʻonoʻo o ka hale. ʻO nā huakaʻi hele malihini mai nā malihini, nā koraka India a me nā meaʻoihana hikina e lawe pinepine i kā lākou mau kuke a me nā lima kuke. I mea e paleʻole ai iā lākou mai ka kiu a me ka haʻalulu e pili ana i ka hōʻeaʻana a me ka haʻaleleʻana, ua hoʻopau loaʻia nā puka makani. Ke heleʻoe e nānā, e nānā i ka puka mua a nānā i nā pukapihi papahele ma kaʻaoʻao'ākau o ka hale. ʻO ka mea e like me ka uhiʻeleʻele o ka hae i ka nele i kaʻokiʻana,ʻo ia ka mea iʻikeʻia i ka nānāʻana i ka puka.

Mai ka minute i komo aiʻoe,ʻikeʻia ua hanaʻia ka hale no ka hoʻokipa. ʻO kahi papaʻi pālualua o nāʻanuʻuʻulaʻula-e kū ana ma waho o ka Central Hall , ua manaʻoʻia no nā puka komo nui. ʻO kahi lālā hoʻolulu i ka paeʻana mua i piha me ka nani o nā kinaki - Meissen, Limoges, Sèvres -ʻo ia ka hōʻailona mua o nā nani e hiki mai ana. ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo, ma nā wahi a pau āu e nānā ai (koe wale nō nā lumi moe, aʻoi aku ka malu a me ka hoʻokuleanaʻia), ua piha ka hale i nā koina o porcelain, silver, 17th French and Italian furniture, Flemish and Dutch Old Masters.

Aia i loko o ka Hale Waihona ka papaʻaina maʻemaʻe i ka 1900 ma kahi i hoʻonohonoho aiʻo Mrs. Greville i kona ola kaiaulu - i kēia manawa i uhiʻia me nā kiʻi o nā mea nui a maikaʻi i hauʻoli iā lākou iho.
ʻO ka lumi Billiard a me kona mau'āina i kūkuluʻia i ka papaʻaina pālahalaha he mea ia ma hope o kaʻaina awakea no nā kāne. Ua hopohopoʻole ka Mō'ī Edward VII i nā pākeke billia ma kēia papaʻaina a mahaloʻiaʻoe e hele i kāu huakaʻi.

ʻO kēia wale nō ka piko o ka hau hau. Akā , ua hoʻopakele mākou i ka mea maikaʻi loa no ka mea ma kahi mamao loa ka lumi ma kahi lōʻihi, kahi i mālamaʻia ai nā mea nui loa,ʻo ia ke Gold Saloon.
ʻO nā lumi no ka'ōpio
ʻOiaiʻo Maggie Greville i hanaʻia he Dame o ka Papa o ke aupuni Beritania ('OBE), he inoa ia i hoʻohanaʻoleʻia. ʻO ke kaikamahine a ka mea kālepa Sekotia, ua'ōlelo kaulanaʻo ia, "eʻoi aku ka lilo o ka pipi ma mua o ka wahine hoʻokamakama."
