Silver & Pearls
An intricate film of swoon worthy silks, pure velvets, mother~of~pearl gifts, handmade paperie, dishes of mouth~watering food & glorious tastemaker travels
A fabulous visit to Manhattan resonates with me now. Seeing the MET's show of the Art of Pietre Dure one of the highlights of my life.
Here's a link to the Royal Court page Slowly and surely the textile elements for a pietre dure design form into a modern composition with a Renaissance look. I adore going to the Opificio delle Pietre Dure on via Alfani in Florence, a beautiful resource for this artwork and the library wall of stones upstairs a veritable treasure of exquisite colours.
