Gaudy, rococo, overdone, complex, ornate, so it was a perfect lure from my usual US things.
Anyone got sumpin gaudier?

Great piece topstuf! I love that reverse design.
btw - gaudy probably describes 90% of my collection. I am drawn to the baroque style designs in particular.

It is very cool.

Charles II of Spain was an extreme product of inbreeding.
His father and mother were uncle and niece.

Based on her portrait, she'd be better portrayed on an elongated coin...
