Goldornamente
und Schmuck im anikisiertem Stil
Schmuck im antikisierten Stil und in archaischem Design war sehr in
Mode zur Zeit von Königin Victoria, die hinterliess auch seine
Spuren in den Geschenken zur Hochzeit an das königliche Brautpaar,
hat die Braut sogar von ihrem zukünftigen Mann ein goldenes Collier
in diesem Stil erhalten, es war "in" solchen Schmuck zu tragen.
Die Einwohner der Insel von Laaland und Falster überreichten als
Geschenk eine Garnitur aus purem Gold.
Chatelains of orange blossoms, myrtle and bouffants of tulle with
Honiton lace, the train of silver moire antique trimmed with bouffants
of tulle, Honiton lace and bouquets of orange blossom and myrtle.
The necklace, earrings and brooch of pearls of diamonds which were
the gift of the Prince of Wales. The bouquet was composed of orange
blossoms white rosebuds, lilies of the valley and rare and beautiful
orchideous flowers, interspersed with sprigs of myrtle sent specially
from Osborne by command of the Queen. The lace for the wedding dress
was of Honiton manufacture and was designed and executed by Messrs Jon
Tucker und Co.
Another gift of the Prince is a gold necklace with Etruscan ornaments,
which is well worth looking at, for the antiwwue simplicity of the design
as well as for the finess of the work. The gold necklace is made by
Mr Phillips.
This give us the impression the bride was very fond of these style
and kind of art and other givers, send also presents in this fashionable
form.
The also send a gold suite, consisting of a massive diadem, armletbrooch,
hairpin, button, ear-rings and finger-rings all of massive gold and
of quaint Runic design.
