Paris! Addendum.

crown worn by Empress Eugenie

My friend, Lisa, who wandered around Paris with me for a few days was kind enough to take some pictures of the jewelry we saw at the Louvre when my camera battery died...here they are now! Thanks to Lisa Norton!

Crown Jewels: diadem of Eugenie (left), diadem of the Duchess of Angouleme (right),
Eugenie's brooch (middle), and two bracelets of the Duchess of Angouleme
 Empress Eugenie bow and tassel brooch

Here's another link to an interesting post on the French Crown Jewels.

Thanks for reading.
