A necklace that belonged to Marie Antoinette from 1849. It's rubies and pearls and sold at auction at Christies. Oh to be a queen!

Hi, Welcome to my blog. I love beautiful things and this blog is about the things I find everyday that are extraordinary. I am not a critic, just an enthusiast. I hope you find inspiration here.
I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold
The Great Figure
Among the rain/
and lights/
I saw the figure 5/
in gold/
on a red/
fire truck/
moving/
tense/
unheeded/
to gong clangs/
siren howls/
and wheels rumbling/
through the dark city. - William Carlos Williams (1883-1963)
