So, when combined with the words on the ribbon, the sulphide expresses the sentiment “Thoughts of me”. This is ...

The increasingly liberated and activism of women toward the later half of the 19th century gave rise to a new class of sporting jewelry. Many an equestrienne was wearing horseshoe pins to the lapel of her riding clothes by the 1880's. We love the detail of the riding belt...
