My husband and I will go to our fhirst Regency ball next year.

Not clothing related, but please humor me.  :-)

On the web page above, there are two photos of the interior of the ball location. Can someone tell me the original purpose of the inset alcoves shown in both photos? Are these closed up fireplace or stove alcoves? Statuary settings? I'm curious because the items placed in these areas don't seem to fit, exactly, but I don't know enough about the period to know why.

Thanks
