The private collection of MCD

Some time ago, I had the advisability of visiting, with the Hotel of the Lace of Brioude (see the Musées " heading "), a superb collection of fan.

I had been disappointed to be able to take photograph: these fan were such wonders that it was a shame not to make some profit the in love ones with lace, or the in love ones with beautiful things quite simply. The owner of this collection had the very great kindness to send photographs to me. I thank it warmly, on your behalf, to allow us to discover part of this fabulous collection.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to restore you the extreme quality of the photographs, nevertheless, I think that you will regale yourselves by traversing this report. This time Ci still, excuse me for the time of loading. I put only one photograph per page so that you can admire this splendid collection.
