The Two Lions.



I've finally added another lion to my collection. The first one on the left I've had for a long time and it's been one of my all time favorites as I love the Art Nouveau influence in the design. Now the same goes for the newest one on the right. It's missing a very small stone in its eye, most of them had a small domed ruby paste stone, so I'm guessing the blue stone is a replacement as they usually matched red with white stones. But it's cute as is too!

The Biggest Locket... Ever.

Warning - neck hazard. This could in fact be the biggest locket ever. A whopping 2 1/2" in diameter! When I hold it I have an immediate reaction to throw it as if it were a frisbee. But I'll try to contain myself.
