Huldah, Cherry Jeffe Print
Dimensions approx
21.7 cm H
18 cm L
2 cm W
Gold painted frame print under glass.
Cherry Jeffe Huldah's paintings are heavily influenced by the French Impressionists - specifically Renoir.
Her paintings almost exclusively depict young girls and women drawn from her childhood memories.
Thus, these paintings are not faithful representations of the subjects but nostalgic renderings of bygone dress and demeanor.
Her paintings are recognizable for their subjects' exaggerated features, especially their large eyes.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was founded in 1932 by King Abdulaziz (known as Ibn Saud in the West). He united the four regions into a single state through a series of conquests beginning in 1902 with the capture of Riyadh.

Abdullah’s grandson, King Hussein, took on the mantle by launching a second wave of restoration efforts from 1952 to 1964.
The original gold dome weathered away long ago - the dome you see today is covered with 5000 gold plates donated by the late King Hussein of Jordan. The 80kg of gold cost the king US$8.2 million – he sold one of his homes in London to pay for it.

SOURCE RECORDS OF THE GREAT WAR Volumes 1-7
A. D. 1919
Photos are part of the description.
Seven volume set.
This copy is registered with the National Headquarters of The American Legion. Various colour covers with gold lettering and decoration.
Gilt at top page edges.
Rough cut pages at the bottom.
Illustrations.
World War 1.
Ex-library book markings.
The leather hardcovers have been through a bit of a wear war as depicted.
Inside no missing or torn pages though.
Of course there are many interesting facts in these volumes. One of special note for me was the start of WWI which was hardly mentioned in my days at school and I don't think too many people know. I wonder why???
Volume 1
Chapter XIII
The Assassination of the Austrian Crown Prince Franz Ferdinand (June 28,1914) by Gavrilo Princip who was poisoned by the doctrines of Narodna Odbrana.
My own research :
Black Hand (Crna Ruka), a Serbian patriotic society assassinated King Alexander and Queen Draga.
The Black Hand was formed by an informal group of officers on 29 May 1903.
Given that it was a secret organization and the circumstances of its creation, the real goals, membership and scope of the organization's activities are still the subject of historical controversy. The Black Hand took over the terrorist actions of Narodna Odbrana, and worked deliberately at obscuring any distinctions between the two groups, trading on the prestige and network of the older organization.

Thread Embroidery
Zardozi
Framed & glass glazed.
Dimensions
35.5 cm x 28.5 cm
x 1.5 cm
Zardozi embroidery is beautiful metal embroidery, which once used to embellish the attire of the Kings and the royals in India.
It was also used to adorn walls of the royal tents, scabbards, wall hangings and the paraphernalia of regal elephants and horses.
Zardozi embroidery work involves making elaborate designs, using gold and silver thread.
Zardosi embroidery has been in existence in India from the time of the Rig Veda. There are numerous instances mentioning the use of zari embroidery as ornamentation on the attire of gods. Initially, the embroidery was done with pure silver wires and real gold leaves.
However, today, craftsmen make use of a combination of copper wire, with a golden or silver polish, and a silk thread. This is because there is hardly any availability of gold/silver on such a large scale as before.
History of Zardozi Embroidery in India
The word 'Zardozi' is made up of two Persian terms, Zar meaning gold and Dozi meaning embroidery. A Persian embroidery form, Zardosi attained its summit in the 17th century, under the patronage of Mughal Emperor Akbar. Under the rule of Aurangzeb, the royal patronage stopped and this led to the decline of the craft. Since the cost was high and raw materials quite rare, craftsmen could not carry on with the embroidery on their own.
Method of Zardozi Embroidery
The process of doing Zardozi embroidery starts with the craftsmen sitting cross-legged around the Addaa, the wooden framework, with their tools. The tools include curved hooks, needles, salmaa pieces (gold wires), sitaaras (metal stars), round-sequins, glass & plastic beads, dabkaa (thread) and kasab (thread). The second step in the process is to trace out the design on the cloth, if possible fabrics like silk, satin, velvet, etc. The fabric is then stretched over the wooden frame and the embroidery work begins. Needle is used to pull out each zardozi element and then, it is integrated into the basic design by pushing the needle into the fabric.
