Is This Love?

Filed under:  RARE vintage's cabinet of curiosities...

L'amour fou.  Definition: mad love, obsessive love, crazy in love.  

A love story.  A story dealing with love and romance.  

Famous love stories:

Romeo and Juliet.  O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?  Is there a girl among us who hasn't uttered those words on a balcony real or imagined?

Cleopatra and Marc Anthony.  Cleopatra was hot, Marc Anthony was hot.  'Nuff said.

Paris and Helena.  Paris burned for his love of the most beautiful woman, Helena.

Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara.  WTF Scarlett?  WTF were you thinking??  Were you out of your cotton pickin' mind?  Really? Ashley?  Duh!

Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre BergĂ©.  L'amour fou.

Love was a recurring theme in the work of Yves Saint Laurent and I find it to be a large part of the work of RARE vintage as well.  I Love what I do and I love the pieces I buy for the store.  And whenever I see a new piece, I think, is this love?

I want to love you and treat you right
I want to love you every day and night
We will be together...
In the immortal words of the great Bob Marley.

Love as celebrated by Yves Saint Laurent.  A jeweled compact and lipstick.  Both unused.  Both limited edition.  Love it.  For lovers and collectors.  And for looking lovely as an objet on a dressing table>
