Perhaps not since Scheherazade spun her tales has there been such a burst of exotic opulence as found in this year’s Kips Bay Decorator Show House.

Raising funds to support the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club which provides educational and developmental programs to more than 10,000 children, rooms in the neo-Georgian house on 65th Street will be on display through May 28. Here are some accents to spot in the sumptuous spaces.
