A French fashionable attaché case


My latest creation is an attaché case I have made with an antique wooden box and 19 th century fashion plates.
There is very few large enough fashion plates in antique French fashion journals and I had to take care to do a good job and don't spoil the two I found in my collection. These antique papers are thin and fragile!
It is a very special attaché case I offered to my daughter for Christmas and I am very proud of (the briefcase and my daughter...).
What an immense pleasure to work and create for our loved ones!

A wonderful Christmas gift for a wonderful girl

I know a very special only-one-on-the-earth girl! She is adorable, smart and attractive... I am creating a Christmas gift for her and I want it as special as she is.
That's why I'm working since one and a half month to make a large box, illustrated with a very beautiful 19th century' fashion plate. It will be a briefcase as nobody have seen yet: only one on earth like this, worthy of a queen.
I let you look at the case before I paint it



I've nearly finished, have still to paint the interior, lay the varnish and set handle and feet in bronze.
I will show to you!
