Wildly extravagant. This French Globe de Mariée is way over the top, and all the better for it.

Dating to the mid to late 19th century and it was made to display a bride's wedding crown. With a velvet chair, surrounded by beautiful wax flowers and embroidery.

An unusual piece which I'm very happy to bring to Taliesin Antiques. What do you think?

I also came home with three amazing pieces.

The full video is live on the Taliesin Antiques YouTube channel.

This one feels like the start of something I want to do more of: visiting real dealers, hearing their stories, and seeing what I can learn (and possibly buy) along the way.
