<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 108299, member: 56"]If, as I read the article you posted, Cahier was the jeweler to Napoleon, then the firm was entirely competent to produce the most lavish and sumptuous pieces in the most current fashion. That doesn't necessarily apply to every article they produced. And I can't imagine a person of Napoleon's ego shying away from conspicuous display on an occasion so momentous as his self-elevation to the rank of Emperor.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
