Hearkening back to the time of the traditional Dutch Master painters,
we’ve brought a romantic feel to this dark and cold season in our winter
issue of The Antiquarian Post. We were inspired by unusual objects whose
details are fine art on their own; curated and collected objects that
would be worthy of the Masters.
We certainly hope you enjoy our interpretation of this age old tradition
and the romance and mystery that comes along with it.
Cheers & Enjoy,
Emma & Bailey

a diamond ring that has lasted the test of time.

Beauty and love are all my dream;They change not with the changing day;
Love stays forever like a streamThat flows but never flows away;
And beauty is the bright sun-bowThat blossoms on the spray that showers
Where the loud water falls below,Making a wind among the flowers.
