Amazing links and pictures, I could easily spend hours on these sites. Of course I bookmarked them all. Thank you.
I love your blog. I accidentally stumbled upon it and have now become a devoted follower. Your sentiments not only resonate completely with my own, but delight the senses in a way that is old and new at the same time. I find your blog entries not only pleasing to the eye but also lifting to the spirit. I live in Switzerland and was thinking that you would absolutely love two small collections with have here: Fondation Martin Bodmer, Bibliothèque et Musée as well as Baur Fondation, Museum of Far Eastern Art.

Dear Angelina,
Your beautiful comment has absolutely made my day! I started this little blog as a way of recording the many inspirations I encounter daily, and to create a space for everythnig I love. It makes me really happy when people appreciate and share my passion.
Thank you for your kind comment, and also for introducing me to these two treasure troves. Cannot wait to visit them... I'm currently based in Asia but do travel to Europe a lot. I would LOVE to go to the Chinese ceramics exhibition at Baur Fondation, and of course the library at Fondation Martin Bodmer!
