I used to show the gifts as part of ' @The Chateau Diaries ' episodes, but you're all so very generous that we have many gifts, and if we spent the episodes opening them, we wouldn't be able to show you other aspects of chateau life! So, for those of you who enjoy watching presents being opened, and as a way to thank those of you who were kind enough to send them, I've made this new channel. Every week we will film your beautiful gifts whilst enjoying afternoon tea or aperitif together.
It is very important to me that you know that we in no way expect anyone to send us gifts. I would like to go further than that and add that, if doing so will put you in any financial difficulty whatsoever, please, please do not send us anything. Knowing that you join us by watching 'The Chateau Diaries' gives us all an enormous boost. But for those of you who have sent these incredibly thoughtful gifts, I hope that seeing us open them gives you a fraction of the joy that you've given us 💖💖💖
If you would like to see more of our life at the chateau, please go to our main 'Chateau Diaries' channel:

As a lover of Southwestern (US)/Native American jewelry, I can assure you that you now have a collection worth $thousands. Those pieces are one of a kind, and highly sought after. The carved animals are significant of spirits and the bird portrayed in the hand woven rug is called a road runner. Enjoy and keep in a safe place. 🌺

@teresacarle294 2 года назад

Yes, absolutely extraordinary examples of 🌵Southwestern🦎 artistry. Mind-blowing 🤯! 🤩Tante looks lovely in the coral necklace. Hopefully, they'll set at least one aside for 🥰Mummy too. 😘Stephanie & Nati both look striking in turquoise. The beaded 💙 blue necklace might be my personal favorite, but those crosses are stunning too. Just blown away by the beauty of all the cocktail rings, necklaces, & earrings. Hopefully, they'll source a jewelry or acrylic box with trays for the pieces heading to the costume cupboard. 🙏God bless dear Dan for forwarding such sacred treasures to ⚜️LaLande. 🤔Think you may rest assured that they are now in good hands. That bust of Jesus is truly moving, esp. in the chapel. The book & cards are sensational. Smashing textiles too. 😍Philip will be handsome in tunic/banyan, & the bronze medallions are marvelous. 💚 Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

@dr.susanchaudoir8576 2 года назад

that jewelry you received from New Mexico is worth tens of thousands of dollars and highly significant to the American Southwest culture. It's not costume jewelry. If you decide to send that to a thrift store please DM me as I live in New Mexico and would welcome the honor to have such beautiful and deeply meaningful pieces of art. Dan was very generous to send to you....may you truly provide them with a home where they will be honored and loved for their heritage.

@neilchisholm8376 2 года назад

Stephanie, I know you read all the comments so I’m sure you now know that the gifts from Dan are worth thousands of dollars and are of museum quality. They could be displayed in a vitrine in the chateau and as they deserve to be viewed by all the visitors to La Lande maybe a lockable vitrine in the entry would be appropriate or even in the Grand Salon. The turquoise pieces would go so well with the paneling. So generous and been gifted to the perfect person who will love them, display them and treasure them.

@seamoonsees 2 года назад

Chimayo is well known for it's weaving. Dan has sent you thousands of dollars in jewelry alone. Many of those pieces are very old and very valuable.

Other than the extraordinary gifts Dan generously sent you, I believe his thoughtful words were his greatest gift. As you read his letter, I must say I teared up because he touched my heart as I'm sure he touched yours Stephanie. He put into words the love and gratitude I, and many others, feel about the community you have nurtured at the Chateau and those of us who watch your videos. I share Dan's sentiments and say, "Thank you Stephanie!"

@kdean9537 2 года назад

I've read some of the comments on taking care of Dan's generous and valuable gifts, for what it's worth , in my humble opinion, I think an inventory list should be done & pictures taken, especially since they seem to have history & meaning attached to all the pieces, it would be a shame to lose track of any of them, especially if you re-gift anything. Thank you for sharing, take care of each other, stay well! Much love Kathy x

@jennifercampbell7698 2 года назад

And yes they need to be identified as part of the inventory. I don’t know if Dan sent a list with descriptions. If not he may be willing to describe them and their origin. I know the value was not a consideration when Dan gifted them but they all have a history and story as well as value and are not merely costume jewellery.

@machellep1 2 года назад

Dan has truly blessed you with a box of very precious Native American art work, all the hand carved pieces. It’s not just jewelry, it tells a story . Several of those pieces are museum worthy. As a collection it would pay for your château. New Mexico tribes will be sorry to see them leave the state. Funny to see Phillip get excited about the Easter stuffie but the priceless hand carved necklace was placed aside. Aunties necklace alone is worth thousands. Please place them in a safe place. Just priced the bust , it’s current sale value is $12,000 American . There’s another listed at $18 000. What amazes me is Dan just mailed them to you in the regular post.

@jennifercampbell7698 2 года назад

Yes I wonder too about the importance of the jewellery. As you say the New Mexico tribes may be sorry to see it leave the country. Perhaps it may be worth checking whether it should be returned to the Native Americans if many pieces are of museum quality and of cultural significance to them. I’m sure Dan would accept this if the jewellery collection is of importance.

@machellep1 2 года назад

I’d be more worried about the French government and the import taxes . Just saw on another château channel they had to refuse a box because the person labeled it too valuable and the import tax was unaffordable for them. I’m not an expert but I saw on antiques roadshow a man with 2 necklaces and the value was over $100 k .

@yeli6420 2 года назад

@@machellep1 I'm surprised that the customs allowed these treasures to travel to France. The duty fees must have been enormous.

@davisnanette 2 года назад

@stephanieh.777 2 года назад

With as much jewellery as you get thru Cadeau, you need to make some kind of massive jewellery "box": One idea would be to take a wardrobe into Narnia, and instead of shelves, make a swing rack (like the ones used to display posters in stores) inside, attached to the back of the wardrobe (to shut up and keep them dust-free in the meantime), each case filled with a gridded metal sheet to hook necklaces, earrings and rings onto. That way, you'd be able to find and choose what you and your guests need for your many parties!

@stephanieh.777 2 года назад

The turquoise necklace is probably close to or more than $5,000 alone the other necklaces are probably worth the same those silver double sided crosses are very old as well!! Please get them insured!!!!! I’m floored that no one in his family didn’t want any of those pieces just floored!! You are one extremely lucky woman!!! I would die to own just one of those pieces. Also get that head appraised as well just can’t get over what you’ve received from that man!!!

What fantastic gifts. Dan is a generous soul, and so talented as well! It’s so lovely that he is sharing these gifts with us and everyone at Laland. What truly thoughtful and significant pieces. Anyone who watches the blogs will know that Stephanie will deep-dive research all of these artifacts right away, she tenacious about learning history of different arts and cultures. And we all benefit from it. These are gifts that will truly be treasured. I love that her aunt could tell the significance of every piece and It’s so lovely that Stephanie is doing what she always does by sharing everything she has.

@jillipepper5353 2 года назад

The white gloves might make a lovely gift to a nunnery, if there are any left. The history of them might be appreciated by them, there are lots of things about priests, bishops, monks etc. but much less about artifacts of the nuns. The gloves might tarnish or get moldy in the dampness of the chapel. They have been well looked after up to this point and having the history attached to them somehow would be important.

Is the chapel a safe space to store all the beautiful and special gifts? I just thought, since there is no heating in there, it might be too damp? I was thinking about the straw cross, the gloves, etc. Not even bronze responds well to a damp environment... It might be better to store the gifts somewhere else, until the restoration is complete, and the heating is in place?

Stephanie, that was an amazing collection of gifts from Dan. The gloves are so exquisite. The Hmong pillows are one of my personal favorites. I became familiar with their handcraft living in Minnesota, where many clans were relocated from the hills of Laos and Cambodia following the Viet Nam war. Their skill at embroidery and stitching is nothing short of marvelous. The roadrunner "rug" should be displayed properly and respectfully to showcase its beauty. If it were mine, it would never be placed on the floor. The magnificent bronze bust would have been beyond generous by itself. I'm amazed that Dan would be willing to part with so many treasures. Yes Stephanie, every piece Dan gifted you was a work of art. He has incredible taste. The American Southwestern native silver, turquoise, red coral pieces have deep religious significance. I hope you all enjoy your incredible gifts. Thank you Dan for sharing the bounty God has granted you throughout you life. You have been truly blessed.

Stephanie, your aunt could tell that all of the jewelry was worth something. She and you and Nati and Phillip recognized the artistry. Everyone is correct. The worth of it all is astronomical! My first piece of good jewelry was bought in Santa Fe, NM A beautiful silver ring made to look like gathered leaves. I had it appraised a few years ago. Today, it is worth hundreds of dollars. Everything Dan gave you is stunning. His art is exquisite.

Please obtain an archival storage box or bag for the gloves. It is possible to find one that allows viewing while keeping the item safe.
