Jewels of the Romanovs and the GAR February Sale

Gay Ann Rogers normally does a sale of new small heart designs in early February and in preparation for that sale, she has started to post photos and PDF files with bits of history on her website.  For those who don't know, Mr. GAR is a historian who occasionally writes articles about various historical topics that GAR's latest pieces are based on.  Today (January 8) there is a photo of the materials for the Imperial Emeralds heart on her home page and a link to the first of a series of articles Mr. GAR wrote about Catherine the Great's jewels since for her, this year the is Year of the Romanovs.

Mark your calendars to start keeping an eye on Gay Ann Rogers' website and the information posted there in the run-up to her small February sale.  She is designing a portrait of Catherine the Great similar to the Queen Elizabeth I portrait done several years ago.  That won't be available for sale until October.  You should note that these items are for sale once.  Then they may or may not be available again.  Start saving your pennies.  If you miss the sale, you may not have another chance at these except via eBay.
