This solarium is perched atop a mansion rich in Las Vegas entertainment history, glamour and design. It has a story to tell. One of internationally acclaimed showman and piano virtuoso and showman Wladziu Valentino Liberace (1919-1987). The floor of this space is made of a deep blue tile while the walls are dressed in highly special tiles imported from the room’s namesake: Morocco. The tiles are made with copper and its rich patina gives a deep lustrous reflection. Most are solid but there is a border of tiles with an etched banding pattern reminiscent of designs found in North Africa. Central on one wall is a fireplace also decorated with copper tile. The fireplace tiles have the addition of authentic North African etchings adding to the over-all exotic feel of the space. The blue floor tiles and the wall copper tiles give way to glass and the sky. This truly unique, magical, and intimate space is perfect for offsites such as: • Corporate Meetings • Board Meetings • Brainstorms • Creative Meetings Above the doorway opening to the Moroccan Room is the phrase, “Liberace’s Stage Friends” This space was Liberace’s favorite retreat for relaxing after his shows with friends. More than $200,000 in custom-made Moroccan tile went into the creation of this solarium. The room was duplicated exactly at Liberace’s penthouse in Hollywood. The current owner of this mansion celebrating the creativity, art, and humanitarian legacy of Liberace, describes this space as follows: This space was "Liberace’s most celebrated property and his favorite home of all. In addition to its flamboyance and grandeur, the mansion served as the business center of Liberace’s operations. Famous celebrities, such as Ginger Rogers and Dolly Parton, attended Liberace’s parties there, mingling with Las Vegas entertainers and local residents. Many Las Vegas residents remember fondly special occasions inside the home. Many of Liberace’s neighbors on Shirley Street recall his greetings to them as he traveled back and forth to his palatial residence. Liberace designed the mansion with a dominant theme of mirrors—mosaic-etched mirrors, mirrored halls, mirrored pianos, massive mirrors etched with work patterned by Aubrey Vincent Beardsley, British illustrator and author. These signature segments are in the style of Japanese woodcuts, emphasizing the grotesque, the decadent, and the erotic. Beardsley was part of the Aesthetic Movement, which also included Oscar Wilde and James A. McNeill Whistler. The Art Nouveau detail in [The mansion’s] formal living room is unique among Las Vegas décor. The living room provided the at-home setting for Liberace’s interview with Ron Reagan, Jr., and the etched glass pieces were included in Robin Leach’s walk through during his Las Vegas home interview with Liberace for “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.” [this mansion] was recognized as a luxurious private home with glass, class and sass. It was Liberace’s oasis in the desert. It served as his location for sumptuous parties attended by the glitterati, as well as family, friends, neighbors, and charity functions. As one tours the house, many one-of-a-kind architectural features may be noted, reflecting the personal taste and character of Liberace.”
