Dear Mrs Charsky,

It was so nice to talk to you last week, and as agreed I will call you again towards the end of February to see how the land lies with regard to our offering another part of your jewellery collection.
It may well be that the situation is not much changed but I think all we can do is to keep in touch.

As you requested, I am enclosing ten descriptions of the unsold items that we are still holding on your behalf after the sales on 14 October 1992 and 12 May 1993. I feel there is no rush to re-include these as with time they will cease to look so familiar. Apart from these I have two small mauve enamel flowerhead brooches (both numbered 126 and there are four altogether in the group). They were not for sale for for restoration to the enamel which has been done.

I hope this will clarify the situation your end. Please let me know if you have any other worries or maybe if so they can wait until we next speak.

With best wishes and love,




Mrs Louis Charsky
