This post is about cool portrait and pendent I saw at the museum. Above is King James VI. He looked so young, so apparently he is the boy king. While trying to confirm that the photo really is of him, I had to google it, and you can read more about him and more history of Scotland here. But for some reason, I kept thinking this is the painting of Bonnie Prince Charles. I am rather conflicted of the portrait of him in the series Outlander after hearing so much of him though....
Again, another beautiful piece of jewelries that looked fit for the royalties.
To be honest, I can't confirm whether the above info is co-related to the jewelry photo before it. I am thinking it is if you read the description. Hopefully it wasn't referring to a different jewelry! That would be so embarrassing for me!
There was a section in the museum where all these lovely pins and brooches were being displayed, and I was quite taken by them. Especially on the fine workmanship of each pieces, as well as many that consist of a portrait of someone's head on them.
I mean, look at these! There are so small! A pendent, a ring. Something you could wear on your body. It's so personal, and so erm, direct. Imagine wearing a pendent or a ring with a photo of your partner on it! Lol. Isn't it a bit too much? I mean, if it's in a locker format, at least you could close it after looking at it. But these pieces, they just started at you. And I wonder who this guy is that his portrait on all these pieces!
Or is it all of different person but with the same white makeup and same style of hair wig? Lol.
I guess they still do such jewelry pieces these days, mainly of Jesus to wear close to you at all times. I think it's nice, to wear something that is so personal to you on your body. For me, I am intrigued by words, so I wear mantra bands on my wrist.
