The Court of Graceland is the Ducal Freehold of Duke Florian in the Duchy of Graceland.
Overview[]
Utilizing the portions of Elvis' famous Graceland mansion not open to the public, the Court of Graceland mirrors the decor prevalent in the rest of the house... with a slight twist. The furnishings in Graceland feature long, custom-made couches and coffee tables, thick carpets, and elaborate window treatments. Comfortable armchairs, brass fittings, chandeliers, mirrors, and high ceilings give it a feeling of grandeur while still seeming homey enough that someone might have actually lived there.
The original furnishings were removed from the rooms that are unused by the estate (and part of the freehold), necessitating the construction of chimerical reproductions. Additionally, the duke commissioned several stained-glass walls and door frames, lending both color and light to the freehold. They range in subject from strutting peacocks to dimly remembered scenes from Arcadia. His favorite room sports a wall covered in reproductions of Presley's gold and platinum record awards... just like the ones found elsewhere in the mansion. Though much of the freehold echoes Graceland's creamy white color scheme, several rooms are decorated in dark jewel tones that appeal to the duke's Ailil soul. In one such chamber, the duke's private quarters, the balefire burns, warming furniture decorated with the flag of Dixie.
