  Hi Denton! Family treasures are the exact words! Beautiful work of art.
  To answer your question about the flagpole, it’s a very high one, I was quite far to take this photo but with a 300 lens. Have a nice Sunday.

  Wow Denton, I really love that spark of blue violet from the swan and seeing these beautiful treasures reflected in the shelf. That little hint of color is magical. Happy theme day, and a restful Sunday to you,

  I love objects imbued with stories, in fact I’m just about to embark on a project based around that. Great choice.

  Very nice… the play of light on glass and the dark background make it really dramatic… and the personal touch makes it very warm!

  This is very personal. Love the twinkling rainbow colours in the sawn, very Dark Side of The Moon.

  Thanks for your comments … theme day was lots of fun … For those who commented on the black background and the glass shelf, I though I would explain that these treasures are in a crystal cabinet which I inherited from my mother. We had the cabinet refinished in black. It comes with a glass shelf’s, a light, and a mirror on the bottom. I will include a link showing the cabinet as a post script in the post … Once again, thank your for your comments … I enjoyed sharing this with all of you.
