Picture it; South of England in the summer of 1894. You are a young lady in your twenties visiting your uncle’s mansion at the countryside for the summer.
As time has proven, some things never change, and your schedule is as busy as someone’s living in 2010. Not convinced? We-heell, let Kitchee demonstrate.
Hereby Kitchee presents thee… thy to-do list:
1. Wake up at 11 am to the maid opening the curtains in your lovely room and letting in the warm rays of July sun. Your room is located on the second floor of your uncle’s mansion. You enjoy the birds chirping and the earthy yellow-hued tone that the sunrays are giving to your room. You lie in your bed for a short while longer enjoying the clean and fresh smell of the bed linen.
2. You get up and dress in your favourite cream-coloured summer dress. You love it especially because it flows so beautifully in the gentle summer breeze. You go downstairs to the dining room to have some light breakfast, served to you by your uncle’s trusted valet Edgar.
3. You step outside with the intention of picking some flowers for your room. The mansion grounds are extensive, but you decide to go to the nearby meadow, which is not too far from the mansion. You find dozens of lovely flowers and you pick them up and place them delicately in the basket that you carry with you.
4. After a while you notice you have spent hours roaming around the mansion grounds and picking flowers on your way. You decide to return to the mansion. You could not wait to taste the delicious little tea cakes that were always served by your uncle’s magnificent cook. You hurry back to the mansion.
5. The tea is served in the living room by Edgar. You take a bite out of one of the heavenly tea cakes and take a sip of earl grey. You sit back and look outside, content of your achievements for today.Oh, what an exhausting day it has been!
So, as one clearly notices, the life has always been, and always will be, stressful and very consuming.
Apropos, the bracelet is made of white plastic pearls and decorated with charming charms that convey the themes predominant in the life of a busy Edwardian-era lady. With 25 cm in length and the aura of sophistication, the bracelet is well-suited for wrists that bare to wear only the most precious pieces of jewellery.
