Hi BarbaraD! Yes, some interesting pieces. The Wheat Sheaf Tiara catches my eyes, too. Itīs a indeed delicate jewel, I like it and its versatility.
Question to all:
The side shows the brooches with the wheat sheafs upside, like on the field. I would prefer to wear them the other side round because of the ties of the ribbons. The design might be made to wear the bows above...
Whatīs your opinion?
