Meow! Very gorgeous. I have developed a profound respect for embroiderers who
use metallic threads thanks to my coif, and looking at this mantle made my eyes
roll back in my head.

Well drat! Okay, so go here:
http://www.christies.com/promos/oct05/7109/overview.asp
Then click on the 5th icon on the right hand side of the
screen, which is a purple and gold train. It is truly one of the last
vestiges of the glorious art of embroidery.
Dictator and tyrant Napoleon may have been, but he certainly
was a style-guru. :-)
