Showcasing a new print featuring the Jazz age starlets 'The Dolly Sisters', twins of Hungarian descent who found fame and fortune in America, first as vaudeville performers and later as Hollywood silver-screen sirens. The pair of bon vivants were known not only for their talents, but also their lavish tastes, famous lovers and a propensity for gambling, nearly bankrupting the founder of Selfridges stores Harry Selfridge.

The set of this piece started life as a wine box, which I have adorned with lace, buttons, ribbon and some of my grandfathers handmade ceramic beads and chains. The arch shaped etching plate was cut by my father, so it's a family affair and represents three generations of craftsmanship.
