Large Palacio Real Sleepers
in
18KT Gold Plating & Mini Pearls
Limited edition, sterling silver sleepers plated in 0.5 microns of 18k gold and studded with pearls. They have a stud system for pierced ears only.
The large pair measure 2.2cm in diameter.
These sleepers are inspired by Madrid´s Royal Palace, the largest in Occidental Europe with 3,418 rooms. It was built on top of the site of the old Muslim Alcazar after it burned down and it took 17 years to complete. Apparently the royal family had a different palace for each season and they resided in this one in Autumn. Nowadays the palace is open to the public and only used for official events. The gardens around the palace are some of my favourite places to sit and watch the world go by with friends as the sun lights up the sky at sunset. You feel more like you are on the edge of the world overlooking Casa del Campo there (a nature reserve).
