    Here is a detail of the central medallion.
    The two last pictures are from an album of the interior taken in 1930!
    Family beloved memory!
    Thanks for your interest!

      Thanks Phil!
      Yes, I can imagine... Still have some treasures, but I had to sell some when my mother deceased in 2000 :-(
      The sale at the moment was not so glorious, as most was XIXth. I specially regret big court dragon robe and pair of coromandel screens!
      That's life...

      I think I like it better where you have it now, such a beautiful piece, too wonderful if you could have kept it all - downsizing sucks !~
    22. kyratango kyratango, 7 years ago
      Thanks Marga and Phil!
      The old pics are from my grand parents home in Indochina...I never went there, halas!
      The surviving altar and some pieces are now in my home :-))
