    The dog in the painting is a phalene, the Royal breed of Louis XIV of France, the sun king. He loved them so much that he declared that all phalenes born in France were his and it was for him to decide who would be the masters of the new puppies...Louis XV had them and Marie-Antoinette had one that followed the Queen to her last prison on Ile de la cite and sat outside her window until it's demise, never realizing that she had died, much like all the dogs around the world that sit by their masters grave.

    I had so much fun looking at the Murano chandeliers in the first shop you visited. My husband watches sports while i watch your vlog on my computer with headphones. When you first walked into the shop I actually shouted out "BUY IT!" And, then I saw chandelier after chandelier and thought "If I only had one I could afford I absolutely couldn't make up my mind. Each is more beautiful than the next." Nick's wife is so charming and if I remember correctly you mentioned that she is brilliant and has a high level job. Would you be able to do an interview with her some day if she would be comfortable? Yet another city to explore-Istanbul, now Brussels.

      I disagree. Philip is a designer. He would find places/homes for the treasures. Some one can love it as well as you! He has a great influence on people in regard to setting a gracious table or designing a room. He does and would with his own business. After a time, you can only collect so much! He would be wonderful finding things for others and sharing his love of design. Did you know he has a shop at the chateau?

    Lovely to see the beautiful Marie & tag along with you to all the shops in Brussels. Loved the 💗Pink Limoge dish set, but €650 is a bit dear for me😳.
    Like Philip, I adore dishes. He's blessed to have found Stephanie❣️ They suit each other so well. ⚜️Château LaLande gives him a canvas to showcase his passion for fine things & entertaining too🥂.
    The first time I went to Australia🇦🇺 on holiday, I was shocked😵 at the high cost of antiques as well as used books📚. It convinced me that vintage was more my speed. 😬My nostalgia for mass produced items of the 20th Century might be a reflection of my lowly birth, but I make no apologies for my sentimentality.
    I'd happily take the 🤎brown & white🤍 toile dish sets they used to give away at the grocery store w/purchase during my childhood. They'd be pretty on a 🍂Fall table. Let alone ❤cranberry & white🤍 toile that you can find at the local superstore nowadays. They would be special on a Christmas🎄table.
    🔨Actually, I'd rather hang up porcelain toile plates & platters to enjoy as art 🖼.
    🍽More of a minimalist when it comes to pattern for my actual plates & bowls.
    🤫Let the food be the 👁👁focus. Serving pieces & linens can have more ✨️personality✨️.
    🤔Hmm. Are we going to see Kat & Dan in London? Michael Petherick? Oliver? Selmar? Pavlina? What's the old saying? Curiosity killed the cat🙀, but satisfaction brought it back😺.

    Philip, I purchased a wonderful little carved cork fantasy scene a few years ago. Everyone one who sees, it loves it. They're just so intricate and delicate.
    The Murano chandeliers are wonderful.
    Poor Marie. She was wise to escape early.
    Wise choice on the cache pot. It wasn't amazing and was too expensive.
    The poodle painting should have been €15.
    I didn't realize the Europeans were into uranium glass too. It was popular here in the US. It is a lovely shade of green.
    The Cristal d'Arc is a great buy. Years ago I purchased loads of it at Target. It was pretty reasonable and practical for crystal of that quality. Wise buy.
    The pink Limoges porcelain was a good sized set, but it wasn't amazing.
    Too high for Evesham. I've collected the pattern for 30 years. You were wise to pass.
    You understate what an absolute monster Leopold was.
    Great day out in Brussels.

Oh well, I will just have to settle for my spinach salad. Cheers to you all.❤
