The historic country house estate at Peacock Point rests on a promontory overlooking the Long Island Sound. It is situated on the traditional land of the Matinecock, an Algonquian people whose territory stretched from Flushing Bay to the Nissequogue River, including settlements at present-day Glen Cove and Oyster Bay. The point was first mapped in the 1860s as farmland for the Peacock family. It later became the estate of Charles Otis Gates, President of the Royal Baking Powder Company and Professor of English Literature at Adelphi College. Gates commissioned architectural firm Lamb & Rich to design a Dutch-Jacobean country house and service buildings on the grounds in 1902. 

Following Gates’s death, Peacock Point was acquired by Henry Pomeroy Davison Sr. in 1910. He purchased the property using his first bonus check from J.P. Morgan & Company, where he had recently started as a senior partner. Henry, his wife Kate Trubee, and their four children, Frederick (known as Trubee), Henry Jr., Alice, and Frances, spent their summers at Peacock Point and were known to host large gatherings for friends and local families. After the original house burned down in 1913, Henry Sr. initiated an ambitious construction project, hiring the firm of Walker & Gillette to design a new main house and outbuildings in the Georgian Revival-style and commissioning the Olmsted Brothers to reimagine the landscape.

Peacock Point has now served as the home of the Davison family for five generations. While the original main house and its replacement no longer survive, the estate’s remaining buildings preserve the stories of the Davisons and many others who lived and worked there over the course of the last century.

I like the tray a lot. Quality is very good. Color (Brown) is attractive. Size is perfect for my nightstand. It holds phone, remote, eyeglasses, & phone. I threaded my phone charging cord through a corner of the tray. But it slides too easily off of the nightstand. I'm going to try to find something to stop it from sliding that will stick to the underside of the tray without harming the wood surface on my cherry nightstand.

Better than other flimsy trays
Color: Black, Size: Rectangle, Color: Black, Size: Rectangle
I got this to replace another flimsy valet tray I got as a gift. This one is way more sturdier, looks nicer, bigger, and has a nice feel.

Looks great, doesn't hold much so measure carefully
Color: Gray, Size: Rectangle
I got this organizer for my husband to keep his stuff by the door. While it's a little smaller than I'd hoped, it looks great in the entryway. It's super easy to snap together, but feels like the material could be damaged easily if you're not careful. He is able to store his keys, wallet, and sunglasses in it, and throws hit hat on top. Overall we are really happy with it.

Perfect
Color: Blue, Size: Square
Just what I needed. The size is perfect as I didn’t want anything too large to place my watches and other accessories inside near the corner of my desk. Its size is essentially 7x7, and the design is sleek compared to other organizer holders. I got the color in blue and it looks stunning with the rest of my setup. I’m unsure about other reviewers, but mine came safely and the leather walls are decently thick, so it’s not too flimsy when buttoned together which holds very securely. There are hole spaces at the bottom corners once assembled, so if you have super small items such as beads or really small jewelry, they could potentially fall out, but most of my items are large enough that won’t be of concern. If you have a wire charger near by, the holes could be used to charge your smartphone inside, which has its own practical usage. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re on a lookout for a sleek but compact organizer holder, and I personally will consider getting another one in the future for myself for other household belongings.
