A treasure on the Trace

This was at a market place -- the Trace, in Mandeville, La.  a while back.  The gold caught my eye, but the contrast of the slate and the shiny gold made it really look outstanding.  $20!  Why didn't I buy it?

The Fleur de Lis -- mantle style

The Fleur de List trophy on the mantle is pretty common place on the fireplace mantle in New Orleans.  In my travels about, though, I have seen in several homes far from the Big Easy.
