Taste of Treasures This Week

Sorry my friends I was a tad busy and really ignored my blog this past month. Well the idea of blogging is to share with everyone my finds of the week and so from now on I will try staying true to this and blog at least once a week. Anyways having said that I have to share this amazing French paste Ex Voto Sacred Heart I found ... this one is almost 200 years old and is spellboundinly beautiful. It opens from the back and has a big locket like compartment. Ex Votos like these apparantly are super rare and on reasearching I found that some of them are true collectables and go for as high as $2500 and honestly the ones I found were not half as blingalacious as this one I have. Here is a peek at this Blingalacious Beauty.

Some other bling bling beauties I found are two paste crosses, three paste birds and a beautiful paste pendant and crescent brooch with a painted miniature on ivory. All these pieces are beautiful and from the early Victorian period ... oooo I almost forgot about the shell paste piece. Enjoy the pics while I sign off for now ... my heart and soul needs to warm up cause its brrrrrrr in my lovely Londra.
