Beautiful front-to-back.

An utterly well-designed dream of antique earrings, with chunky rose cut diamonds in cobblestone setting to the front and gorgeous engravings allthrough the back. They are shaped as buta or paisley - a curved tear shape with long history, and when worn they sit balancing just at the edge of your earlobe. Every detail is thought through, making for a very unique and yet wearable pair of super sparkly earrings.

Available, please message for details.

if Letizia's new ring really is from Felipe, it's the most romantic thing ever.

Everyone can go away, no one has a chance to compete with it.

I'm 100% sure it's from Felipe because she's wearing it on the same finger she wore the Karen Hallam ring Felipe got her in 2019. She considered it a wedding band, she never took it off, not even for gala events.

Despite whatever stories the press made up about the Karen Hallam ring Letizia herself was asked by a journalist who had given her the ring and answered that tall guy over there (Felipe).

Also, the inscription on the new ring is incredibly romantic and it's too expensive for her daughters.

This is Letizia's new ring:

"Amor che tutto move" (Love moves everything) with the inside message AS LONG AS I’M EXISTING YOU WILL BE LOVED.

(It also features a Fleur de Lys, the Bourbon dynastic emblem)

Portrait of Mariana of Austria

Artist: Diego Velázquez (Spanish, 1599-1660)

Genre: Portrait

Depicted People: Mariana of Austria, Queen of Spain

Date: 1652–1653

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Museo del Prado, Madrid

Portrait of Mariana of Austria is a 1652–1653 oil-on-canvas painting by Diego Velázquez, the leading artist of the Spanish Golden Age, existing in a number of versions. Its subject, Doña Mariana (known as Maria Anna), was the daughter of Emperor Ferdinand III and Maria Anna of Spain. She was nineteen years old when the painting was completed. Although described as vivacious and fun-loving in life, she is given an unhappy expression in Velázquez's portrait. The portrait is painted in shades of black and red, and her face is heavily made up. Her right hand rests on the back of a chair, and she holds a lace handkerchief in her left hand. Her bodice is decorated with jewelry, including a gold necklace, bracelets and a large gold brooch. A clock rests on scarlet drapery behind her, signifying her status and discernment.

Mariana had been betrothed to her first cousin, Prince Baltasar Carlos. He died in 1646 aged sixteen, and in 1649 she married her uncle, Baltasar Carlos's father, Philip IV, who sought her hand so as to preserve the hegemony of the Habsburg dynasty.[A] She became queen consort on their marriage, and after her husband's death in September 1665, regent during the minority of her son, Charles II, until he came of age in 1675. Owing to Charles' inhibiting physical weaknesses, she dominated the political life in Spain until her death in 1696.
