Servant Life: it wasn’t all elegance and extravagance in the 1920s

Join me for a deep dive into life "downstairs” in a country house. From the servant hierarchy to the grueling work to the lack of personal freedom, the staff had a completely different experience from those “upstairs.”

We also take a little detour into the history of household appliances, including a socialite who invented the modern dishwasher! 🫧
