Paris, gare Saint Lazare in 1887


I like very much this little box!
It's my latest creation.
It has been a true pleasure to choose the range of colours.
These elegant Parisian young girls are buying train tickets at Saint Lazare station, in Paris; I'm quite sure of that. Architecture is identifiable, indeed.
Look at the expressions of faces, attitude of people behind: it's exactly the atmosphere of a station hall (everyone is polite, refined, elegant... isn't it?).
It would be so smart to offer a beautiful necklace or bracelet, presented in this box... Pearls or diamonds?

At the station in France, in 1887


I used a little antique box and a 1887' French fashion journal for the creation of a so chic French box I'm working on. I have to paint it now and it will be a pleasure! As soon I have finished, I post a photo of these two elegants French girls buying their tickets at the station.
It will be a nice box for a neck lace or a watch, for example.
