V Muse Jewelry

duchessofostergotlands:

What do we know about this V Muse place? Seems strange they just popped up and started laying out huge sums of money for tiaras!

I've been researching them because I was wondering the same thing. The were the official jeweler for Le Bal last year too and I had never heard of them before. I looked into them a bit more this year and I found out that they are not an antique/estate jeweler like I thought.

They were founded in 2017 by Alex Fan and Vivian Jia as East Langkun International Culture. They had been collecting items and working with museums in 2009. So they are an art institute and are not selling any of the jewels.

East Langkun is an international culture institution headquartered in Beijing. It is dedicated to the exploration, discover, and protection of artworks worldwide, and is highly reputed by it's achievements in academic research and conservation, cultural exchanged, museum operations, exhibitions and publications

Then in 2018 they went on a huge buying spree spending millions and millions of dollars buying jewelry at auctions. Like seriously the amount of money they spent in that year alone is ridiculous. It's not unusual for rich people to buy a lot of jewelry but usually it's done over a much longer time period. They also usually either hoard it in a vault or loan it to a museum in a dedicated hall with their name really big over the door.

Before they partnered with Le Bal in 2022, they changed their name from East Langkun to V Muse. The websites and inventories are the same. I was confused last year because V Muse keeps calling themselves a brand so I thought they were selling the jewelry.

East Langkun

V Muse

It's a little odd for an art institute to loan items to be worn like this but I enjoy seeing the jewelry worn so I'm not complaining. They also have lots of pictures and information on their website and loan the jewelry to museums and exhibitions. I have no idea where all that money came from but I guess if I suddenly became a billionaire I'd do the same thing.

@duchessofostergotlands

But you’ve never had to make conversations with Prince Andrew so who won in the long run?

This is a very good point that I had not considered

If I want to wear Britney's perfume and smell like bubblegum, let me

Exactly, there is nothing wrong with that, but they act like it says something about you as a person

#duchessofostergotlands #there is a lot of that can be say as youtube gurus becoming a giant ad #and promoting and normalizing that you NEED an incredibly big amount of products

They’re all beautiful, don’t get me wrong, but someone needs to host an intervention with the Swedish royal women’s stylists - why is their white tie attire always SO bad? Silvia, Victoria, Sofia, and Madeleine deserve better.

@duchessofostergotlands Sir Nils Olav III has been promoted to the rank of major general for “setting a superb example for the rest of the penguins”. I saw this and had to tell you immediately.

#it’s what he deserves #this is the best news I’ve heard for weeks #sir nils olav iii

I'm sorry if you've already answered the question but what are some of your favourite royal wedding looks?

Hello :) No need to apologise but you are very polite, I appreciate it! haha. So I did this edit back in 2017: https://www.tumblr.com/duchessofostergotlands/156221994034/my-favourite-royal-wedding-dresses-row-1-grace?source=share

Obviously that was 7 years ago but over the years I've been asked for others who would join the list and I would say Princess Eugenie:

Sassa de Soma's evening reception dress:

Lady Gabriella Windsor's evening dress:

Iman's wedding dress was also beautiful:

Do Princess Madeleine and her family live in Miami? This is a question that has been keeping me up at night lately lol

According to Jess and Grace, Madeleine and her family have only lived in Miami from August 2018 - August 2023. Idk why they moved again but I know they live in Sweden now :)

Hello my dear! This can be public or private, don’t mind :) Would you happen to have a list of the “court jewellers”? Like we associate the Russians with Fabergé, Bolin is the Swedish go to etc. Thank you so much!

Hello, I don't have a list but I'll try to make one. There are certain jewelers that I associate with different royal families but not all of them have an official crown jeweler the way the British royal family does. Also lot of times the crown jeweler is the person taking care of the royal regalia but doesn't have anything to do with their personal jewels like tiaras and necklaces. In the UK, Queen Elizabeth II had a personal jeweler and a crown jeweler and sometimes that was the same person but not always.

Belgium - They don't have any regalia to take care of but Wolfers are royal warrant holders and have supplied a lot of their important jewelry like Queen Mathilde's engagement ring and Laurel Wreath Tiara.

Denmark - The Danish court jeweler is A. Dragsted which I did not know prior to this. I knew they had made some jewelry for the Danish royal family a long time ago but I didn't even realize that they still existed.

Japan - Mikimoto makes most of their jewelry but I don't think they hold any sort of official title.

Luxembourg - Schroeder Joailliers have held a royal warrant since 1914 so I guess that's the closest thing to a crown jeweler but Luxembourg doesn't have any regalia to look after and I don't know of any major jewelry that was made by them.

Netherlands - Steltman Jewelers is the Purveyor to the Royal Household and does most of the alterations and whatnot for the Dutch collection. I really appreciate how that are able to figure out ways to adapt pieces of jewelry while still being able to return them to their historic settings. Steltman and Queen Maxima are a match made in heaven.

Norway - I don't think Garrard are technically the crown jewelers because it doesn't make sense to send the regalia outside of the country but they are certainly the personal jewelers to the Norwegian royal family. Garrard has been handling their jewelry since Maud (a British princess) became queen in 1905. They are the only ones on this list were the jeweler I most associate with a family is not from their own country. Even after the big jewelry heist in 1995 (which I am working on a post about because there's some new info) they are still very loyal to them and have bought two tiaras from Garrard since.

Spain - Ansorena is the jeweler I most associate with the Spanish royal family but I can't find a list of royal warrant holders and their website doesn't mention anything so I don't know if they hold an official role. Can anyone from Spain find a list of Proveedores de la Real Casa? The Spanish royal family's website is impossible to navigate.

Sweden - Bolin has been the Swedish court jeweler since 1916. It's funny you mentioned them and Russia in your example because I actually associate Bolin more with Russia. They were Swedish family that immigrated to Russia and were the crown jewelers for over a century. Fabergé became their competition towards the end but Bolin was still making most of the major jewelry for the imperial family with Fabergé doing more objets de vertu kind of stuff like the eggs. After the revolution the Bolin family moved back to Sweden and became the Swedish court jeweler.

United Kingdom - The jeweler I most associate with the British royals is Garrard but they stopped being the crown jeweler in 2007. The current one is Mark Appleby from Mappin & Webb but they were clear in saying that is a personal title and that Mappin & Webb are not the crown jewelers. He was the person carrying the crown during the late queen's funeral and he also carries it in during the State Opening of Parliament because he's one of the few people allowed to touch the crown. Garrard still has a royal warrant from King Charles and I have wondered if we might see a return to them in the new reign.

I might make a post of royal warrant holders too because I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking up crown jewelers.

They think it’s such a serve to use her real name as if Henri doesn’t go by a different name! @duchessofostergotlands

“whether or not porn should have a plot.” Ok but what did you decide?

We decided it should but also most porn does have a plot already. They're just not necessarily intricate plots

duchessofostergotlands Be careful, think this anon is going to kidnap you and keep you in their basement until you agree with their rambling 😬

Why are people like this
