Very interesting. Thank you for sharing. It just shows the truesplendorsof the eras past. Not only was fashion and housing raised to impress, but even the basic things, like cards. The small items, porcelain, toiletries, and miniatureobjects of art, as equally impressive in creation, just as valuable stunning, as any necklace of palace.
