Looking for an act of resistance you can do from your sofa? We know they won’t make it to his desk but it does clog up his mail room. 😈 A small act of resistance, while also helping fund the larger resistance (10% of all sales goes to orgs incl the @aclu.org ).

A photograph of Donald Trump yelling that’s been added to a one sided card, next to an envelope with the address of the White House on it.

The backside of the previously mentioned card, with a hand written nit that starts out, “Dear Donny: I see you were prepping for your visit with Vlad.” There is also a black sharpie marker next to the note.

The Leuchtenberg Fabergé Tiara, and look who’s wearing a show stopping replica! Carrie Coon, who plays Bertha Russell, gets to wear this beauty in an episode of HBO’s Gilded Age. The real thing is on display at The Houston Museum of Natural Science. #tiaraTuesday

When someone grabs one of the kids’ paper crowns and wants to be a part of #TiaraTuesday. How do you say no to that face? 🤴🏻 👑

When it’s #TiaraTuesday but you’re also having. A severe case of #EarringEnvy. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Another set of fabulous heirloom jewels for the Duchess of Gloucester! For the banquet at the Guildhall, the Duchess donned pieces of Queen Mary’s jewelry set with diamond and pink topazes.

Yesterday I turned 55. I’m always thrilled to see another year. And I love to celebrate it! So, today and tomorrow you get a present from me. 55% off AND, we’re still giving 10% of all sales to the ACLU.

They may think they have won today’s battle. But we will win the war. To the 218 House and 50 Senate members that voted yes - we won’t forget. Especially come mid-terms.

If you’re mad like me, our Tiny Riot charms are a great way to say what’s on your mind.

Whew. What. A. Week. Normally, I would have a Tiny Riot Charm drop tonight. But they’re not ready yet. So…they’ll drop tomorrow. In the meantime, please enjoy our new Tiny Riot stickers. You get one when you get a charm. 😁 #sticker #tinyriot #freebie #fridaynightin #charms

Having a “I just need a little jewelry treat” kind of day. Thinking this would about do it.

In the 2018s “Ocean’s 8” motion picture, directed by Garry Ross, Cartier joined Warner Bros. in the meticulous manufacture of a recreation of a long lost famous diamond necklace by Cartier.

Anyone else dreaming of having complementary tiaras with their sister (or in my case my “chosen sister)? #TiaraTuesday

Repost from @antiquejewelleryhistorian

2 sisters. 2 tiaras. 1 legendary jeweler- twin testaments to Cartier.

Trump is planning a military parade in DC on June 14, but the biggest story of that day will be the actions we take everywhere else. I'm rallying on No Kings Day to reject strongman politics and corruption. app.sosha.ai/s/cIC5R4Xz

I mean….why wouldn’t they? 🤷🏻‍♀️ That center stone once belonged to Marie Valerie, the youngest daughter of Emperor Franz Joseph. It’s 3.3cts but wears like a 5ct stone. And it’s available. 💎 Just message me for details. #royalty #royals #oldcutdiamonds #oldminecut #engagementring #vintage #antique
