For when you're feeling a little too warm:
A white
Brussels Point de Gaze lace and blond tortoiseshell fan with the gold monogram AR, by Alexandre, Paris, circa 1890.
For when you're traveling:
Silver-gilt nécessaire de voyage in the Louis XVI style, each piece engraved with monogram NM
within an escutcheon below a marquis' coronet, comprising a table
mirror, a pair of three-light candelabra, three pairs of cut-glass
perfume flagons with silver-gilt caps, three hair brushes, a pin box, and
a pair of rectangular cloth brushes, in original fitted oak case, circa 1890.
For when you're just feeling a little blah:
Sapphire and diamond necklace, by Mellerio dits Meller, formerly in the collection of Princess Marie Bonaparte, Princess George of Greece and Denmark, and then of her daughter, Princess Eugénie of Greece and Denmark, circa 1870.
I think having the things you need to have and use everyday as beautiful is the easiest way to have a beautiful life! I'm sure there is an argument that that necklace is useful too ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat necklace is - completely - useful! ; )
