A Treasure


On the cruise to the Balkans with Anne-Marie and Sharan and Peter we went to St Petersburg and in the gallery shop at the Hermitage this treasure caught my eye. The colour the intricate art work and the pearls embedded in the lid...I looked at others...the price was higher than I thought I'd spend...but as Anne-Marie said how often will you be back in St Petersburg...the joy from this treasure is truly worth it.
