San Francisco

What a cool place to visit! So close to Sonoma Valley and Napa Valley,
home of some of the best wine producers in the United States.
Working on "Wine Does Wonders" wax seal necklaces certainly
brings our thoughts back to the last trip we took to San Francisco...


The carved green seal gem is called a bloodstone (the mineral aggregate heliotrope)

As we're taking a trip down memory lane, 
let's go all the way back to 1905.
Below is a tune by Air called "La Femme D'Argent".
Check out the archive video footage which is over 100 years old!
A streetcar traveling down Market Street in San Francisco in 1905,
a great view of what life was like at the turn of the century,
before the earthquake and fire of 1906 that destroyed the area.
