A Boston-Area House Combines Tradition and Contemporary Flair
Khinkali (pronounced hing-kaa-lee) is a flavorful meat and broth-filled dumpling from Georgia. These dumplings are a staple at supras- Georgian feasts. In Georgia, the word supra translates into tablecloth, and the word has become associated with Georgian feasts. As with many Georgian cuisine recipes, Khinkali filling varies from region to region. The most popular is a mixture of ground beef and pork. In the mountainous region of Georgia, Khinkali is predominantly made with ground lamb. The cooking process allows the seasoned meat filling to release a delicious broth within the dumpling. Khinkali can be considered an all-in-one meal. We have the broth (soup), the dough (bread), and the meat. An all-in-one meal!

This listing is for a crystal cluster slide with ribbon necklace. When added to a ribbon, it gives it a bolo tie effect but for the 17th or 18th century. The ribbon is adjustable to fit anyone and it simulates the detail from Infanta Maria Luisa de Borbon, gran duquesa de Toscana by Anton Rafael Mengs, circa 1770 (first photo). Remove the pendant, leave the crystal, and wear it as a choker. I have many examples of how this was done on my Pinterest page (https://www.pinterest.com/kkwalte/18th-century-ribbon-ruffle-and-lace-necklaces/). The crystal clusters measure a little over 1/2 inch, the red and peridot are smaller at 3/8 inch. The charms are different and they comes in a kit ready for you to put together. Each kit is listed in the drop down, and the photo should correspond to it. When in doubt, just ask. If you are interested in something that I have sold out, please convo me as I may be able to make another. I also offer these with just the crystal and ribbon - for those who have their own pendant, charm, or locket to hang from it. The drop down will show it as "ribbon only."

FLETCHER, Banister (1975). A History of Architecture (revised by J.C. Palmer). The Athlone Press, University of London, London. SBN 0 485 55001 6 --- Blenheim Palace is a monumental country house situated in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England. It is the principal residence of the dukes of Marlborough, and the only non-royal non-episcopal country house in England to hold the title of palace. The palace, one of England's largest houses, was built between 1705 and circa 1722. Blenheim Palace was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. The building of the palace was originally intended to be a reward to John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, from a grateful nation for the duke's military triumphs against the French and Bavarians during the War of the Spanish Succession, culminating in the 1704 Battle of Blenheim. However, soon after its construction began, the palace was to become the subject of political infighting; this led to Marlborough's exile, the fall from power of his duchess, and lasting damage to the reputation of the architect Sir John Vanbrugh. Designed in the rare, and short-lived, English Baroque style, architectural appreciation of the palace is as divided today as it was in the 1720s. It is unique in its combined usage as a family home, mausoleum and national monument. The palace is also notable as the birthplace and ancestral home of Sir Winston Churchill. Following the palace's completion, it became the home of the Churchill, later Spencer-Churchill, family for the next 300 years, and various members of the family have in that period wrought changes, in the interiors, park and gardens. At the end of the 19th century, the palace was saved from ruin by funds gained from the 9th Duke of Marlborough's marriage to American railroad heiress Consuelo Vanderbilt. The exterior of the palace remains in good repair (Wikipedia)
