I think Empire-period parures are very available on the market, the whole sets usually seem to be intact and in their cases. They aren't my cup of tea, but perhaps if someone has an extra fifteen or twenty thousand on hand they may have a vintage parure of their own! Much more reasonable than one of all diamonds. --Previous Message-- : Itīs sunday and itīs raining? Youīre bored or : lazy or both?
