Chapter 96: Adela's Birthday I

The day was quickly arriving for Adela's thirteenth birthday, and the excellent set of jewelry in which Berengar had specifically crafted for his little fiancee was complete. The set comprised of a 24k gold necklace in the Tudor style from his previous life, with finely cut black garnet gemstones as well as an official engagement ring, made of a matching composition of materials, and finally, a pair of clip-on earrings, which was also made from gold and black garnet.

Ultimately when worn by Adela, it would be the most extravagant set of jewels in possibly all of Austria, and Berengar was greatly satisfied with the result of his craftsman. Linde gazed upon the magnificent jewels with a hint of jealousy as she looked at her own, which were exquisite in their own right, but not quite as grand as the set crafted for Adela, which were fit for a Queen or even an Empress.
