While living in Beirut in the early 70's, my mum worked with a local jeweller, Hovic, to create some wonderful jewellery using ancient Roman beads. She has kept the best pieces but the rest are going on sale at
Bonhams in London on April 13th. I love this picture of her...we left when I was eight but I am sure living there influenced me greatly and I have very strong and good memories from that time.

Beautiful! You must have had an interesting childhood!
