Delightful stuff—those emerald slabs! Your descriptions are phenomenal. Your eye is unerring. Thank you.

Ugh this is s u c h a good edition of Dearest! I'm dead.

There was mention of the Bronte manuscript in the Times over the weekend, and I'm so pleased it's going to the Parsonage museum. That's great news.

Also, that bracelet is spectacular, but the praying mantis necklace is giving me serious grabby hands!! I kind of hate that the necklace estimate is so low because that makes it seem accessible, but I expect that one will blow the estimate away. Same for the bracelet, frankly.

Even though I kind of love it, I think I would be a walking bug dance if I were wearing the Praying Mantis necklace.

Amazing! I'm writing something about Rolex at the moment and would love to talk to you about it.
