Mon Dieu! Such lovely pieces and what a great story. The model for Elstir. How I love the scene with Marcel and Albertine in Elstir's studio.
I particularly covet the gold cigarette case, the ladybug and the little box. And don't the prices seem reasonable for such beautiful baubles? Imagine someone from the Belle Epoque living into our times. What a lot of history. The changes we have undergone simple boggle the mind. Oh my!
Here is the lovely article with the photos. Jewelry from the time of Proust
