AZURE SEAS

 

 

While our ship was docked at Sorrento, Italy, a frighteningly exciting storm came up. Although prepared to wait out the winds which churned up the stunning blue waters with frothy white caps, we longed for calm seas, so we could anchor in Capri. Surely you've seen the often scary / beautiful waves----not the destructive ones. We remember ours on 3" pale blue ball. You might want to change yours to white or gold.

BARTERED NECKLACE, THE

 

 

How times have changes! Seems impossible that less than 100 years ago, a lady of a magnificent Fifth Avenue Mansion in New York City, traded her edifice for---a string of pearls. That building now houses a famous jewelry firm. But does anyone know where that pearl necklace is? Or, what it looked like? On a 3" red bal, studded in pearls, you'd get an entirely different look on white, gold and even baby pink!!!

BLUE FOOTED BOOBIE

 

 

While in the Galapagos Island, with its thousands of indigineous crasture one is struck by one: "the Blue Footed Boobie", whose feet look as if they had been dipped in dye. They flitted across the crystal waters, flapping their wings as they spread their wings and landed INCHES away, totally unafraid of anyone, having no predators. They looked as if they are saying "oh--Guys, --- POSE. Here comes another group! "We recommend them with a smile , on a 3" white ball, but you might want to do this on, gold pale blue, or if you are adventurous, celery.

DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER

 

 

Sometimes when strolling though a hushed room, gazing into brilliantly lit glass cales of necklaces, bracelets, rings tiaras, and crowns that were worn by elegant lords and ladies in times long gone, one becomes startlingly aware that these WEARES are long gone too . Sigh!! BUT those "DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER". Our reminder of that is on a 3" royal ball. Your could be on any of the 13 colors we offer.

EMBRACEABLE

 

 

On a cruise, we met a very wealthy gentleman who was traveling with, and overwhelmed by, a lovely lady companion. To prove his ordor in Dubai he bought her a "slave bracelet" which consisted of a ring for every finger each of which was "connected" to an elaborate bracelet at the wrist. It would have been "too much" at the formal affair but we found the design facinating and we called it "EMBRACEABLE". On a 3" hot pink ball, but you might want to try it on any of the colors listed at the top of the price list that goes with PINK.

HOUSE OF LORDS

 

 

There can be some argument, we suppose for sweeping away the cobwebs of anchient tradition, such as powdered wigs, but somehow making the HOUSE OF LORDS more "modern", and therefore "accessible", does seem to rob that august body of some of its mystery and awe. In May 1999, we were honored to be escorted through the House by one of its members, and herewith we tip our hats, both to its noble past and its illustrious future. On a 3" dark purple ball, but you can do this on SOME of our others 3" colors.

JEWELS OF THE HERMITAGE

 

 

The Museum (s) in St Petersburg has a fablous collection of jewels from Byzantine through Renaissance, Baroque to the relatively modern Faberge. All gazzling but some of the early pieces seen positively encrusted with jewels and bright enamels. No "jewel" here, but the rich sence of them we've captured on a 3" red ball. Alternative color, white or gold.

MIDNIGHT DREAM

 

 

Everybody tries to find a little "secret" place to be totally alone, even for a little while. It probably is nowhere real.... just a small corner in the shadows of one's mind. Sometimes you've just heard about.. Somewhere you'd like to go. Only you know about it. You've never shared. A----MIDNIGHT DREAM. On a 3" black ball here, but since everything on it is white and gold you can put it on any of the alternative colors at the top of the price list.

MINT JULEP

 

 

Travels give birth to just about all our designs. Some inspiration comes from old memories. Years ago, after a long day of travel , we arrived on Kiawah Island inSouth Carolina and wearily rested in a wicker rocker on an open porch facing the ocean, andsippled a luscious MINT JULEP, the color reflected in our faces as the weariness just drained away. The sun shot rays of silver wat AHHHHHH!!!. Our memory on a 3" celery ball. You can try this on ANY colorball, but remember, there are green sequins and bugles! (WE "snitched this name from a ball we retired years ago!)

OPERA HOUSE

 

 

While on a cruise up the Amazon in Brazil, we were encouraged to visit the OPERA HOUSE in Mamaus., but we were not prepared for the goegenousess that literally drizzles from every corner of this Spanish Baroque architecture. Why here? Why not? We were stunned. No wonder all the top starts past AND present , insist on appearance here is a "must". On a 3" celery ball but you could easily do it on white, gold, lavender, or purple

ORANGE SORBET

 

 

(Pronounced Sorbay) One very posh restaruant in Southern France offers some 37 sorbets, which is sort of like a sherbert, but creamier, which they may offer quite small to clean the palate between courses, or as an alternative desert from the more calorie laden sinfully delicious temptations reaching out achiingly from the 3-tier trolly. We chose an orange sorbet, leaning romanntically against a huge scoop of vanilla. On a 3" white ball. You could do it on gold of course. Any other color is strictly up to you

ROMANOV

 

 

It seems that every king, soverign, monarch, pharaoh, or Tsar--- in short, anyone who has "graduated" to a position of absolute power, HAS to build some kind of monument to him/her self, and to declare to the world that THEIR taste is as superior as their station. Such was the Romanov Dynasty, which lasted 300 years. To see the lush richness and lavishly draped chambers in the restored palaces in St. Petersburg make one become utterly speechless. All those forgotten artists who painted, sculpted, molded, gilded and stitched. How would it be even possible to find the talent and expertise to reproduce this magnifence today ? However, that's exactly what has been done.... and it's GORGEOUS!!!. On a 3" purple ball. Do you really want to change the ball color?

SHADES OF JADE

 

 

"Mysterious, dark, magical cryptic, beyond the supposedly natural. All and more have been ascribed in "JADE", with it's INFINATE depth and hues. In Japan, it is carved into leaves and attached to "brached" ; sculpted into birds, flowers, and male and female figures. But in all, there is something not quite reveled. Something always held back. Shades of Jade. on A 3" emerald ball. You can try it on white, gold or celery

VIENNESE CONFECTION

 

 

The city of Vienna itself is a jewel, and much of the architecture looks good enough to eat. But, to go there on a diet is something like going against nature. So many bakeries. So many sinfully caloric goodies. You have to pretend that anything that makes your mouth water means NOTHING, if you have a lite soda with it. Yeah, sure. Our fattening delight is on a 3" gold ball. Try it on pale blue, or white

WIND SONG

 

 

One way to get completly away from all the sound and fury of everyday life is to stand on the balcony of a sailing ship, gazing out at only the sea--no land in sight, and only the wind singing in your ear. What a sound!!! What a song!! What peace, if only for a little while. On a 3: emerald ball, but since all the decoration is crystal and silve you can do it on ANY of the current 3" colors at the top of the price list. How about purple or black----
