Christmas Visions, 2004

December Diamonds/Katherine's Collection tree. 7.5 foot slim. Just a fun tree that the granddaughters can feel free to gently touch.	Tree Detail

Foyer chest with the Radko nativity pieces under a large oil of the Virgin and Child by Peruvian artist, Diana Mendoza.	One of two sets of lit shelving with half of the carved Russian Santas and my father's old violin, made in Florence, Italy, in 1763.

7 1/2 foot metal tree with 1000 clear white lights (as are often used outside the house). I covered the metal branches with white feather boas (10 of them) to fit. The black ornaments are all by Breen. The fillers are white balls and 150 clear crystal drops. This is a dramatic tree, and is in the dining room, where the chairs, chandelier, and wall mirror above the buffet are all also black.	Detail of the white tree, showing several ornaments, of which the black and gold Bijoux Noel is the most rare.
