On a pale wall the carving will still read, but the dramatic three-dimensional effect softens. She also benefits from raking side-light rather than head-on lighting.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-family: 'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif; font-size: 13px; letter-spacing: 2px; text-transform: uppercase; margin: 0 0 14px 0; font-style: italic; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Keeping\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"width: 40px; height: 2px; background: #C2A46F; margin: 0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 15px; margin: 0 0 40px 0;\"\u003eDust gently with a soft dry cloth or a soft-bristle brush, paying attention to the deep folds and tassel detail where dust collects.
