A thing of beauty...


I just wanted to exclaim over these fabulous 1920s coupe champagne glasses I bought for Pa for his birthday in a few weeks. My obsession with all things Bright and Young continues. I even went to the Cecil Beaton exhibition in St James (The ladies were indeed painted to the eyes); fabulous, and rather a private viewing, but none the worse for that. Devastatingly no postcards to be had, but I did get a catalogue and devour the images all the way home again, particularly the ones of Nancy Cunard and Gwili Andre - helped distract me from the grimness of Elephant and Castle as I passed through.
