I met Lanalii Nishi October, 13th at the opening of the beautyful Freyas Desire on the island of asgard. She seemed to like my jewelry and asked me if i could develop the crown jewels for her and Creyes Beresford, the soon to be queen and king of Samarkand.
I had a picture of the symbol of the city of Samarkand:
and the titel "golden rose" for Lanalii to start with.
I choose to trace the outlines of the symbols with tiny prims to create the crests and then merge them for the final Samarkand royal crest.
The coronation was held on November, 3rd at the palace of Samarkand.
It was a wonderful ceremony and a great party afterwards!
I took a lot of pictures, you can look at them at my flickr place: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ca_sands/
These are the crown jewels i made for the coronation of Creyes Beresford and Lanalii Nishi as Khagan (king) and Khanum (queen) of Samarkand:
Lanalii's jewels:
Creyes' crown jewels:
Each got a crown, a royal necklace and a handpiece with the crests on them.
Additionally they got a special necklace to give to their loyal followers...
And as a little extra... the Coat of Arms Shield of the new Royal family:
As a reward i was promoted to the Royal Tala Saaz (goldsmith) of Samarkand, a title that i wear with honour and pride!
