Best Wall Colour as a Background for Displaying Statues?
I'm in the process of decorating one of my rooms which is ultimately going to house all my statues. I really can't decide on which wall colour would show off my statues best either through a glass display cabinet or on a shelf. Cream, white, light grey, tartan?!
Anyone got any opinions based on experience?
Thanks guys.

We're in the same seat buddy, i have 6 colors put up on the walls of the two interconnected rooms that will soon hold my collection and hi-fi gear and i just can't decide on what colors i want.
I know i want warm colors, but not red. That's about as far as i've come. It's so frustrating!

Before we had our 5th child and I lost my display room to a nursery, it was very similar to Underdogs and I really liked it. The color we had was called "Periwinkle", which sounds........well you know, but it was (I thought) an excellent color for displays. I don't really care for white myself, but when it comes down to it, it is really just a matter of personal taste.
