The Great June Shiny Clearance Sale

Just in case you hadn't heard, Elise Matthesen is having an online sale of her jewellery. Even if you think you shouldn't buy any, do go look. It will make things go spark in your head; it has the quality not only of beauty but of activity, engagement, narrative. I've never seen anything like it. I keep going back to look at "The Waters of Twilight are Endless," a necklace so long and heavy that she is selling it in inches. I can't afford it and don't exactly want it, having a generous abundance of Elisian jewellery already and not enough occasion to wear it; but I could look at those photographs forever, and I can guarantee that the thing itself will be even more glorious.

The sale looks to be going on through the weekend.

I love the names of things.

I've come to think of the names of things as chapter titles in the Book of The Lioness.

Oh, you just had to say that, didn't you?

:) I have asked Elise how much they eat hair, since I have to be so careful of tangles. I don't think I could do $500, but if it goes down, and it won't eat my hair....
