Style note — products made in the traditional Victorian style are often recognisable because of their lavish decoration. The design mixes various sources of inspiration, but the prevalent decorative features are rich floral ornaments, scrolls and foliage, often applied all over the items.
Facts of Lavish “Champagne is the only wine that leaves a woman beautiful after drinking it” — said Madame de Pompadour, as the story goes. We may add — in moderation.
