Reigning Queens Pop! with Diamond Dust

October 13, 2020

Reigning Queens - 1985 - Andy Warhol. We are kind of Warhol fans over here. Some have said these screenprints were a 'monument to kitsch' and ' a shameless assault on the rich kitsch market'. Maybe. Probably. We don't own one of course but the Royal Collection of the British Royal Family does, the Tate Gallery...The prints were created from official photographs then 'touched' by Warhol. A separate Royal edition was issued - these Warhol sprinkled 'Diamond Dust' which was actually ground up glass on the prints while they were still wet. Who doesn't love a bit of Diamond Dust!.The subjects: Queen Elizabeth II, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, Queen Ntombi Twala of Swaziland and Queen Margrethe II of Denmark. Warhol turned theyse monarchs into Pop Queens. On that note...POP on over to our Reigning Queens Collection and see who Pops! for you.

A Rose by any other name..

Loved this soap so much I bought more.
Great smell, soft on the skin, and scent lingers all day.
Great for washing your face too.. gentle and nonastringent.

Love

I got the notebook, but it didn't have lines which made me even happier, since now I can use it as a sketch book!

Blood Orange Soap Cake

I've been using your soap every morning. The softness of the soap is like a luxury of butter and milk..a nod to Cleopatra and her gorgeous milk enriched skin. I love the way it feels. So soft and rich and silky. I think the size of the bar is just right. Fits the hand very well and the thickness of it again points to its luxury. All in all I have to say I really love it a lot. Don't change the formula so the soap is harder. It's what sets it apart...the luxury of its hand. Thank you.

Hojo Masako Deep V Neck T

high quality material

good thick cotton, nice sturdy hanging strap, the image is brightly coloured but it's not that weird paint stuff that means you can't use both sides of the tea towel to dry things. Absorbent!
